Mario Palacios is a young winemaker who combines his studies in oenology with the self-taught nature that defines him. An entrepreneur and dreamer, he has been involved for years in a unique and special project that has transformed his lifestyle, producing wines with soul and always committed to sustainable agriculture. Montemundo comes directly from its roots in the heart of the Sierra del Segura Albaceteña, where its mountainous terrain stands out, accompanied by the course of the Mundo River. It is an area he cannot detach himself from due to its human warmth and beautiful landscape.

Winemaking

Organically cultivated vineyard with a commitment to sustainable agriculture and a focus on quality through low yields. Situated at 1,000 metres above sea level, this vineyard produces high-quality grapes with well-balanced alcohol and acidity levels.

Vinification is carried out using traditional methods, with destemming and skin maceration for twenty days at a controlled temperature of 25 °C. The wine is then aged for six months in a combination of French and American oak barrels.

Tasting notes

Cherry red in colour. On the nose, it offers aromas of candied fruits typical of the Monastrell variety, along with smoky and toasted notes from barrel ageing. On the palate, it is balanced, complex, and fresh. A flavourful wine with well-integrated acidity and pleasant tannins.

Food pairing

Ideal with stews and hearty dishes, lamb or veal, pasta, as well as cured meats and aged cheese. Serve at 13 °C.
