This organic estate lies in an iconic Spanish landscape: it was the home of Cervantes’ fictional knight Don Quixote. Moreover, there have been many centuries of the most bitter battles across this land between the invading Moors and indigenous Christians. The plight of a Moorish princess of the time inspired the name ‘Mureda’. She was orphaned in one of the many battles across the region, remained hidden and protected here by a knight. So, the house became known as ‘The House of the Moor’ or ‘La casa de Mureda’. This was in tribute to the brave young girl’s plight in a time of great conflict.
Amphorvm Tinto is a vibrant blend of organic certified blend Tempranillo and Syrah. Aromatic notes of red berries and plums dominate the palate, and a sweet, round structure provides a lengthy finish.
Great with a meat and cheese platter – don’t forget to add black olives! Also, why not try with rabbit stew or if that doesn’t grab your fancy; then go for a veggie sausage in a wholemeal bun with a touch of ketchup!
