Region

Murcia

Murcia is a smaller, lesser-known region in the extreme south-east of Spain. It borders Andalusia, Castilla-La Mancha, Valencia and the Mediterranean. There are three DO wine appellations in Murcia: Yecla in the north, Jumilla in the south and Bullas in the western province. The classic wine of these regions is a robust, fruity red wine made from Monastrell. In addition to Monastrell, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah are also grown for red wines and Macabeo, Airen and Merseguera for white wines.


Producer/Brand

Bodegas Luzón

Bodegas Luzón is one of the oldest wineries in DOP Jumilla, the land of the Monastrell grape. This grape variety is essential for Bodegas Luzón and is cultivated in a long family tradition. The history of the bodega begins in distant Luzón, the largest island in the Philippine archipelago. The founder Don José Molina returned from there to his hometown of Jumilla after his military service in 1814 and named his land “Finca Luzón” - after the island that always remained in his memory. After that, the winery was run by the women of the Molina family for several generations, demonstrating the bodega's unmistakable pioneering spirit even then. This love of tradition and passion for innovation are still reflected in the wines of Bodegas Luzón today. The vineyards are cultivated on over 500 hectares at an altitude of 450 to 600 meters with a variety of soils and climatic zones, making it possible to grow not only the essential Monastrell grape, but also other varieties such as Garnacha Tintorera, Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc, to name but a few.
