Producer Information
Founded by Pedro Martin in 1999, Casa de la Ermita is at the forefront of the quality revolution that has swept through Spain in recent years. Using modern, temperature-controlled vinification techniques, the estate is able to coak deep, rich flavours from the old Monastrell vines found in the Jumilla. The result is modern, fruity wines but with all the warm, herby, spicy notes you'd expect from Mediterranean reds. In addition to the traditional Monastrell, the estate has planted grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and even Viognier, all of which are proving to make very exciting wines.
Regional info.
