Bodegas Castaño Hécula Organic Monastrell is a barrel-aged red wine from the D.O. Yecla region of southeastern Spain. Made from 100% Monastrell (Mourvèdre) grapes grown on old vines averaging 50 years of age, the fruit is sourced from vineyards situated at 750 meters above sea level on a mix of sandstone and limestone soils.

The wine displays an intense, shiny ruby red color of medium-high intensity. On the nose, it offers outstanding notes of ripe red fruit, plums, and blueberries layered over elegant and subtle toasted oak. The palate is well-balanced with flavors of blackberry, dark chocolate, and spice, finishing with a delicate, enveloping richness. It is fermented in stainless steel and aged six months in oak barrels (80% French, 20% American).

Hécula pairs well with lamb, beef stews, grilled meats, spicy cuisines such as Mexican or Tandoori, as well as lighter fare like cured cheeses and assorted tapas. Best served at 16–17°C.
