Monastrell, Jumilla. Spain
Finca El Paso was born to express the natural synergy between the Monastrell grape (aka Mourvèdre) and the unique vineyards of Jumilla. Named after the pass that meanders through the mountains towards the Mediterranean, Finca El Paso has since expanded into Cariñena, in both cases drawing on low-yielding, old vine fruit to give wines of concentration, charm and personality.
