This is a natural red wine from Alicante with Monastrell varietal. Alicante is located in the Valencia administrative region in the Eastern Spain. In fact, Monastrell is still the most dominant wine grape variety in the region. A deeply bold, smoky red wine found in Central Spain and Southern France (where it’s equivalently known as Mourvèdre). Aged 6-months in American oak barrels.
In 2020 four friends from the professional world of wine, Pepe Rodríguez de Vera, Hilarión Pedauyé, Álvaro Ruiz and Alberto Soriano, joined their paths to solve one dilemma. They all felt frustrated when traditional varieties, emblematic vineyards and unique production methods of the Valencian Community started to disappear to make way to the mass production industry. The four friends decided to develop Sopla Levante to make a change in this trend.
This project begins in possibly the most mythical place of the Valencian Community: the Natural Park of La Mata in Alicante. It is a magical place with ancient vineyards standing just a few meters from the beach and the salt flats. This natural park surpasses extreme weather and salinity conditions that provide an incredible personality to the wines. Sopla Levante is also emerging in Requena with old Bobal vineyards. They quickly added new plots of Monastrell, Cariñena, Valenci Negre, and some other indigenous varieties.
