Ep 326: The Best Spanish Wines You've Never Heard of -- Jumilla and Yecla

Tucked into a small corner of southeast Spain is one of the greatest sources for delicious, multi-layered and decadent reds you’ll find. In the province of Murcia, at latitude 39˚N lay two regions of Monastrell (Mourvèdre) production that have quietly churned out wine for more than 3,000 years: Jumilla (joo-ME-yah) and Yecla (YAY-clah). Today, these regions are magnificent but receive so little press that we can get exquisite bottles that have the fullness, richness and depth for less than US$20.
