Details
Bold and beautifully savoury, this red leans into blackberries, red and black cherries, loads of peppery spice, and a hit of dried herbs and leafy goodness. It's wild and herbal - but still super clean (yep, even with zero sulphites!). A burst of violet florals lifts it all up. A delicious red!

Welcome to Parra Jiménez, where three brothers turned a dusty patch of central Spain into Europe’s largest Organic vineyard - without trying to be trendy about it. Long before "organic" was the buzzword it is today, the Parra brothers - Francisco, Javier, and Luis - were just doing what their family had always done: farming naturally, with respect for the land, and maybe a few sheep wandering around for good measure. They've been working the sun-baked soils of La Mancha since the '90s (the 1990s, to be clear), proving that big flavour doesn’t have to come with big chemicals. Their wines? Pure, honest, and full of character - just like the brothers themselves. You’ll find juicy reds, zippy whites, and even a sulphite-free bottle or two, all made from grapes grown in the dry heat and cool nights of the Spanish plateau. From riverbed vineyards with ancient alluvial soils to sun-catching red slopes, everything here is crafted with love, a touch of old-school tradition, and just enough modern tech to keep things humming. Organic, vegan, and made to be enjoyed - not overanalysed.

Wine region
Castilla-La Mancha, Spain
La Mancha is a wine region in Spain known for its hot and dry climate, high altitude vineyards, and significant grape production the top sub-regions are Almansa, Jumilla, and Manchuela, each with its own unique wine styles. The terroir across these regions can be characterized by the high chalk content of its soil, which helps to retain moisture during the arid summers. The top wine styles produced in La Mancha are primarily red wines made from the Tempranillo grape, including the well-known Crianza and the top tier Reserva styles, as well as Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. However, the region also produces some white wines made from the fruity Airen grape, which is a native varietal of La Mancha and one of the most widely planted white grape varieties in the world.
