About Depaula Monastrell

Sometimes, opportunities pop up when you least expect them, so it is important to be open to new possibilities and approaches. In the case of Juan Antonio Ponce, winemaker at his own family project Ponce in Manchuelo (Spain), it was a pleasant surprise to see that a wine that emerged almost by accident, was a success. Depaula Monastrell is a wine that works very well thanks to its energy and liveliness. However, its journey has been far from smooth. All in the name of achieving a surprisingly fresh and nervy Monastrell.

The truth is that this wine, which is named after the first-born daughter of this winemaker since she was born in 2012, has been through different vineyards. It all began when Juan Antonio advised a family of winegrowers in the Tobarra area (D.O. Jumilla) and they paid him for his services in grapes of the Monastrell variety. It was then that he came up with the idea of making a wine in the name of his newborn daughter, Depaula Monastrell. A single-variety wine made with grapes that stand out for maintaining a surprising acidity for a Monastrell and, for this reason, Ponce has been forced to constantly search for vineyards that meet the needs of this very special wine. So much so that the first vintage of this wine belonged to the D.O. Jumilla, whereas some vintages were never released because they did not reach excellence, and others were part of Vinos de la Tierra. However, if you keep trying, you get there eventually, and finally, in Villanueva de la Jara, where they have their winery, they have found the Monastrell this wine deserves. A grape that is part of the D.O. Manchuela, which lies 700 metres above sea level on very poor calcareous soils and is cultivated in a respectful way. The grapes are harvested by hand with a very low alcohol content and wonderful acidity. In the winery, the grapes are fermented in 4500-litre wooden vats with their own yeasts and 80% of the stems. Finally the wine is aged in 15,000 litre foudres for 7 months.

From the point of view of getting the purest varietal character, Depaula Monastrell is a Monastrell that is completely different to what we are used to in the Mediterranean. A wine that surprises for its great freshness and one that will make you fall in love because of its great price. An opportunity you can’t miss.
