The dominant thing to commit to memory is that Monastrell, known to us as Mourvèdre, is responsible for 85% of the vineyard planting in Jumilla. Jumilla was also one of the first of the revolutionary regions where winemakers harnessed the best of Spain's long-established traditions (remember, Pliny talked of plots here, so a few thousand years is the timeline), soaked up the generations of experience than married those to ultra-modern techniques and equipment. This revival brought an arrival of investment, and Skippylike leaps forward in the quality, character and individuality of the wines, wines that never forget to show you where they've come from while they sweep you up in the excitement of where they, and the region, are headed.
