This Wine: Light and juicy red wine made from the local Giró grape variety. Cherry and other fresh red fruit flavours. Great slightly chilled, goes down quickly.

Notes on the Winemaker: Josh is from Germany and Josie the UK. They met in the Marina Alta region of Valencia after Josie's family moved when she was young and John had a family home there. He completed his winemaking studies in Germany and South Africa before the couple acquired old bush vines in this region which are planted amongst citrus and olive trees. They farm Moscatel at lower plots and red varieties in areas of higher elevation and create hugely characterful wines full of Mediterranean and mountain influences.
