El Campeador Description

Our wines are inspired by the cultures and people of our Spanish winelands and each one tells a unique story, lovingly brought to life by our passionate people. The vineyards are situated around the small town of Jumilla, in the southern Spanish province of Murcia. Our Syrah vines were planted at an altitude of between 650m and 700m, while our 110year-old Monastrell vineyard sits at around 900m and pre-dates the great phylloxera attack that devastated the region`s viticulture in the early 20th century. This world-renowned wine producing region enjoys year-round sunshine and scant rainfall, producing miniscule, low-yielding vines that develop intensely fruit-forward and richly aromatic grapes.

Winemaker Notes

Grown in desert-like conditions, at an altitude of up to 900m, these ancient bush vines produce deeply-flavored fruit of enviable richness and aromatic intensity. The time in oak adds hints of vanilla and mocha to the dark mass of concentrated black fruits. Wrapped in a smooth and velvety texture, this blend of Syrah and Monastrell is delicious on its own and makes a great match for fillet steak, spicy buffalo wings, grilled vegetables and mature cheeses and all kinds of barbecue.

Blend: 50% Syrah, 40% Monastrell, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon

Professional Ratings

90James Suckling
Brambly and fruity nose full of ripe cherries, nicely baked berries, grilled herbs and spices. Ripe and giving on the palate with fleshy, generous fruit and firm tannins.
