It combines ripe Mediterranean fruit with polished oak, generous body and a distinctive smoky finish. Bodegas Murviedro traces its origins to 1927, when it was founded as Bodegas Schenk, and remains committed to sustainable viticulture and environmentally conscious winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine shows an intense ruby-red colour with attractive purple highlights. Its aromatic profile is generous and inviting, led by ripe dark and red fruits, with elegant notes of toasted oak adding depth and subtle warmth.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with a velvety texture, balanced tannins and a rounded, well-integrated character. A lingering smoky note marks the finish. The 2020 vintage is drinking well now, while careful cellaring over the next few years should allow its fruit, oak and savoury nuances to knit together further.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced in Valencia from old-vine Monastrell, Sericis Cepas Viejas reflects the variety’s affinity with the region’s warm Mediterranean climate. Murviedro places strong emphasis on sustainable vineyard management and a harmonious relationship with the surrounding environment. The wine’s ripe fruit character and refined toasted-oak profile point to carefully controlled vinification followed by oak maturation, although specific harvesting and ageing details are not provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA natural partner for grilled or roasted red meat, game, traditional stews and richly spiced dishes, it also works beautifully with mature, strongly flavoured cheeses. Serve at approximately 16–18°C. Decanting is not essential, but giving the wine 20–30 minutes in a decanter can help open its ripe fruit, soften the tannins and reveal more of its smoky complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBodegas Murviedro was established in 1927 under the name Bodegas Schenk and has since become a well-known producer in the Valencia wine region.
