Bodega Cerron - Jumilla - El Tiempo que nos une - Red - 2024

Wine:

At nearly 1,000 meters of altitude on Jumilla’s limestone soils, Monastrell here reaches a remarkable purity of expression. From 70-year-old pre-phylloxera vines and aged in large foudres, the 2024 Red El Tiempo que nos une impresses with its intensity, freshness, and natural elegance.

The nose reveals a beautiful array of black and red fruit aromas lifted by bay leaf, thyme, and sweet spices. On the palate, the texture is silky, the fine-grained tannins bring both structure and delicacy, and the lively limestone backbone carries the finish with brightness and length. A vibrant wine, generous yet highly drinkable, crafted with great precision.

Already irresistible today, it will reach new heights over the next 10 years. A wine of true character with a finely chiseled expression, awarded 95/100 by the Selection Committee.
