The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A perfect example of the vitality of the Spanish wine industry, Bodega Barahonda has always been distinguished by the excellence of its work, which has been awarded many times by Parker.

Under the expert guidance of the brilliant oenologist Araceli Gonzalez, the organic vinifications give birth to very personal wines, with a modern, fresh and lively style.
Wine Labeled organic and vegan, the 2020 Red Yecla Organic Monastrell Merlot is a red with strong flavors of fruit, with smooth tannins and a good aging potential. As usual, the palate is very juicy, full, fresh and fruity, with an enticing presence of mourvèdre grape, which is here much more docile than its French version. The velvety and rich aspect  has an undeniable charm, without any excess of alcohol. At this price level, it's unheard of! A Selection Committee favorite rated  93/100.
Vinification Hand harvested. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks for 15 days. Matured in vats.
