Bodegas Luzon is an estate locates in the mountains of Jumilla, 220 miles southwest of Madrid. The grapes for Altos de Luzon were hand selected from two unique vineyard's;the Monastrell is harvested from 50 years old ungrafted vines in the Montesinos Vineyard, the Cabernet and Temopranillo grapes come from 20 year old vines in the Castillo de Luzon Vineyard. The vines are planted in very chalky, gravelly soil and struggle against the harsh climate to produce very low yields of less than 1.6 tons/acre.

Tasting notes

The results of this struggle between vine and nature is a wine with tremendous saturation of color, round rich flavors of ripe plums, blackberries and cassis, balanced with notes of warm spices. The integrated tannins and the long, well developed finish are the culmination of gifted winemaking and 12 months of careful aging in French and American barrels.
