Monastrell / Mourvedre / Mataro

The versatile Monastrell, known as Mourvèdre in France and Mataró in Australia, is a grape celebrated for its bold, full-bodied wines. Thriving in warm climates, Monastrell is the cornerstone of Spain’s Yecla and Jumilla regions, where it produces deeply coloured wines with rich dark fruit, earthy spice, and distinctive minerality. In France, Mourvèdre is a key variety in the Rhône Valley and Provence, often used in blends such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape, offering complex, gamey flavours and tannic structure. In Australia, where it is known as Mataró, the grape is gaining recognition for producing intense, flavour-packed wines with a unique expression of the land. Whether grown in Spain, France, or Australia, these wines are known for their depth, concentration, and exceptional ageing potential.
