Bodegas Carchelo Jumilla Red

Founded in 1990 at the foot of the Sierra del Carche, Bodegas Carchelo is a family‑run Jumilla estate devoted to organic farming and the region’s emblematic grape, Monastrell. Their vineyards sit across the Jumilla highlands at elevations commonly around 600 meters, with select parcels rising toward 750 meters. The dry Mediterranean climate, scarce rainfall, and sharp day‑night temperature swings create ideal conditions for concentrated, balanced fruit. Poor calcareous and sandy‑loam soils encourage deep rooting and naturally restrained yields, while hand harvesting and sustainable viticulture preserve the purity of each site.

Made from 100% organically grown Monastrell, this wine reflects the authentic character of Jumilla. Fermented in stainless steel and aged briefly—about five months—in French oak, it shows vivid aromas of red and black berries, subtle spice, and gentle balsamic notes. The palate is smooth and fresh, with lively acidity from the high‑altitude microclimate and polished tannins that frame flavors of dark cherry, blackberry, and savory earth. The finish is clean, balanced, and expressive of the region’s sun‑drenched yet cooling mountain influence.
