The Torre Castillo Estate
Torre Castillo is a family owned winery run by Julian Lopez Lizan. It is located in Montealegre del Castillo, in the heart of the D.O. Jumilla. The family built a new cellar in 1996 and got new equipment that allowed them to take advantage of the most modern techniques to produce high quality wine. Also, they own 700 oak barrels. After spending two years experimenting two different vineyards, they had their first harvest in 1997 and released their first vintage in 2000. They started to export their wines in 2003. The export market keeps growing and now represents 60%.
The Torre Castillo Vineyards
They own 100 hectares of vines planted to Monastrell grapes (also known as Mourvedre or Mataro). The wine region of Jumilla is quite large and spreads over the province of Murcia and Albacete, in south-eastern Spain. It is a rugged country, where the vineyards grow on a high plateau surrounded by mountains. Cultivating grapes has been a tradition for more than 2000 years and particularly Monastrell, that benefits from excellent growing conditions in the area. The limestone soils and the harsh climate (with temperature over 100 degrees Fahrenheit in summer, plunging to below freezing in winter, the scarce rainfall) enable Monastrell grapes to develop their color and flavors to the fullest.

Pike Road Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Tasting Notes
Rich and complex, black cherry, confectionary strawberry and dusty rose waft up from the glass. An expressive palate follows with juicy black cherry and pomegranate alongside notes of tropical mango and coconut in a slightly gamey, smoky finish.

Review:
This balanced wine has one of my favorite aromas of all time—the caramel and brioche-like cookie scents of a Stroopwafel cookie. These divine scents are joined by red cherries and chalkboard dust. Raspberry, dark chocolate and espresso flavors are supported by velvety tannins and slightly elevated acidity

Finca del Castillo Tempranillo La Mancha is made from 30 year old vine Tempranillo (100%).
This pretty little red has a flavor reminiscent of good Cotes du Rhone. Medium bodied, flavorful; hints of raspberry and strawberry. Shows best with picnic fare and grilled meats. Perfect summer red.
