Little known outside of Spain, Bobal is actually the country's third most planted grape variety. The region of Utiel Requena, inland to the west of Valencia, is its heartland. The hot, arid climate here tends to produce fleshy, powerful red wines. A weighty, muscular red wine, offering a dense core of forest fruit flavours framed by smooth yet abundant tannins. Aromas have a subtle floral character. Try with strongly flavoured smoked meats.
