Often somewhat light-footed wines, but now a reasonably robust red boy from the cool north of Asturias in Spain, elegant with body. This Monasterio de Corias Valdemonje Carrasquin has a powerful aroma and taste. Wild red fruits, spicy, ripe fruit with a mineral background. Only old Carrasquin vines are part of this wine, refined for several months in good French oak barrels. A fresh, deep, and mineral wine from this emblematic variety. Highly sought after for its fruit, spiciness, power, and minerality. A new label also refers to the new dynamism flowing through this winery. Beautiful modern wines are being made here.
Quite a surprise on the wine market as well. The wine has undergone 12 months of wood aging in a limited edition. There are only 1,100 numbered bottles. The stock is small; we are happy to be able to serve our regular customers. The Monasterio de Corias Valdemonje Carrasquin goes wonderfully with lamb chops and roasted goat meat.
Juan Manuel Redondo, who sadly passed away suddenly in 2017, was one of the founders of the revival of viticulture in Cangas. Born and raised in Cangas, he was a viticulturist and eonologist, and together with his business partner, he was able to realize his boyhood dream: breathing new life into the bodega of the Monasterio de Corias monastery. He brought fantastic wines to the market and rekindled the interest of local people in viticulture, subsequently training them as well. In doing so, the succession of his idea to put viticulture in Cangas firmly on the map and the cultural heritage of Cangas has been secured. Now that the Spanish and foreign markets seem to be showing interest in these Atlantic wines, it is a great pity that Juan can no longer witness his success!
