Ego Bodegas 'Marionette' | Jumilla, Spain

£14.70

A slightly lighter Monastrell/Syrah blend from the ‘Goru’ winemakers.

Marionette is made from a delicate blend of selected Monastrell and Syrah grapes, chosen among the best plots, to express a bright and vivacious wine.

The grape harvest is carried out manually at the peak of grape ripeness in early autumn. Each of the two varieties is fermented separately in stainless steel tanks for approximately 10 days. The temperature is carefully monitored daily, ranging between 24 and 28°C. 2-3 months ageing in American oak giving its intense, potent fruit some toasted notes.
