Mourvèdre
Mourvèdre, aka Monastell in Spain, is a common blending partner of
Syrah and Grenache (aka Garnacha in
Spain). In Australia and California it can also
appear under the name Mataro.
Mourvèdre's bastion in France is Bandol, where it reigns supreme in the red blends and yielding a savoury, gamey, herby wine. It also commonly features in Southern Rhone, Languedoc & Rousillion blends.
The grape needs warmth climate to ripen fully. Its stronghold in Spain are the appellations along the south-east Mediderranean (Murcia, Jumilla, Bullas), where it produces rose, dry red and sweet fortified wines.
