In physics, quanta (plural) are the minimal amounts of any physical entity required to create an interaction with another. We consider Quanta the smallest batch, highest quality wine available from any given region that can create a positive and lasting interaction with the consumer. These hand-crafted wines have an innate ability to create sudden and significant appreciation. Whereas wines of this caliber are usually pricey, we have identified the ideal balance of quality and value to ensure that our Quanta meets the demands of your palate and lifestyle.

Since 1975, this family-owned winery in Yecla has been cultivating the Monastrell grape, and now have up to 400 hectares on their estate. Monastrell (known as Mourvedre in France) is a perfect grape to adapt to the Yecla region because it can survive in the extreme conditions between winter and summer, including the long periods of drought.

Ripe cherry, violet, and fresh herbs on the nose, with ripe red fruits, oak, and spice on the full-bodied palate that leads to a beautifully balanced finish.

Enjoy with spicy pork or barbecued chicken, lightly dressed red-sauce pastas, grilled vegetables, or strawberry and chocolate mousse.
