Mourvèdre (Monastrell, Mataro)

Mourvèdre is known for its thick-skinned berries and late ripening, which can make it challenging to cultivate. However, it is highly prized for its ability to produce wines with great depth, complexity, and aging potential.

Varietal Origin: Mourvèdre is a red grape variety that is believed to have originated in Spain, specifically in the region of Valencia. It is also known as Monastrell in Spain and Mataro in some regions, such as Australia and the United States.

Typical Taste Profile: Mourvèdre wines are known for their dark color, bold and robust flavors, and firm tannins. They often exhibit dark fruit flavors such as blackberry, black cherry, and plum, along with notes of spice, leather, and game. Mourvèdre wines can be quite powerful and concentrated, with high alcohol levels, and often benefit from aging to soften their tannins and develop complex flavors.

Regional Styles: Mourvèdre is widely grown in regions with warm and Mediterranean climates, such as Spain, France, and Australia. In Spain, Monastrell is a major grape variety used in the production of wines in regions like Jumilla, Yecla, and Alicante, where it produces full-bodied, rustic, and deeply flavored red wines. In France, Mourvèdre is often blended with other grape varieties, such as Grenache and Syrah, in the famous wines of the Rhône Valley and Provence. In Australia, where it is known as Mataro, it is often used in blends or produced as a varietal wine, showcasing its bold and robust character.
