Experience the heritage and depth of Utiel-Requena with MÓN Tempranillo 2023—an organic, biodynamic red crafted from 60-year-old vines.
MÓN Tempranillo represents a beautiful bridge between history and modern viticulture. Grown on the historic Finca Casa de la Viña estate (formerly built by the grandfather of the legendary Spanish film director Luis García Berlanga), these Tempranillo vines are grafted onto ancient, deep-rooted Bobal rootstocks. Fermented using recovered traditional concrete tanks and aged to perfection in French oak, this is a premium red wine that tells a story with every sip.

Palate:Full-bodied, rich, and remarkably well-rounded. It offers soft, velvety tannins and a long, lingering finish that leaves you wanting more.
Perfect Food PairingsThis robust Tempranillo pairs beautifully with roasted meats, grilled ribeye steaks, slow-cooked lamb shanks, cured Iberian hams, and aged cheeses like Manchego.
