Parajes Del Valle Manchuela Macabeo 2025 - 750ml

Winemaker Notes

Bright, clean and crisp white fruit on the nose with yellow apple, crunchy pear and a bit of ripe green citrus. The palate is super clean and fresh with heaps of upfront acidity, lime and crisp yellow apple. There is a subtle floral note at the back and a little softer pear and melon. Mouthwatering.

Drink with Ceviche, Goats cheese, Salads.

Winery Notes

Parajes del Valle is a bright, new, exciting winery, established as recently as 2018. From Day One their wines have been in the young but experienced hands of Maria Jover, a 28 year old winemaker who counts Vegas Sicilia as a previous employer. Her modern views to winemaking are transforming the wines of the area. The certified organic Monastrell grapes all come from old vines (15-40 years) split across four plots (Fountain of the Partridges, La Cañada de Albatana and the Termino de Arriba in the north of Jumilla). They are maintained by the age-old “Terraje" system, meaning that the vineyards are rented out to the farmers, who give back 7% of the production in turn for taking good care of the vines. Almost all 80–90-year-old vines in Jumilla are maintained like this but are increasingly at risk of dying out as landowners want to change the system to the more productive and cost-effective system of irrigated vineyards. Parajes del Valle is adamant to protect the “Terraje” system, even paying a higher price for the grapes in guarantee the highest quality.
