Description

Pedro Parra y Familia Monk is an exceptional single-vineyard Carignan from Chile’s historic Itata Valley, crafted by acclaimed terroir specialist Pedro Parra. Named after the legendary jazz pianist Thelonious Monk, this wine is part of Parra’s prestigious cru series, celebrating extraordinary vineyard sites rooted in ancient granitic soils.

Sourced from old, dry-farmed vines in Guarilihue Alto, Monk is a powerful yet refined expression of Carignan. Pedro Parra’s philosophy centers on allowing geology and terroir to speak clearly through the wine. Native yeast fermentation, whole-cluster inclusion, and aging in neutral vessels preserve the vineyard’s identity, resulting in a wine that combines intensity, freshness, and mineral precision.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep ruby-red with vibrant purple reflections and excellent concentration.

NOSE:
Complex and expressive, offering aromas of blackberry, black cherry, plum, and wild blueberry. Layers of violet, dried herbs, cracked pepper, graphite, crushed granite, and subtle smoky notes contribute depth and intrigue.

TASTE:
Medium to full-bodied with remarkable energy and structure. Dark fruit flavors are balanced by vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a pronounced mineral backbone. Notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, spice, herbs, and earth unfold across the palate, delivering both power and elegance.

FINISH:
Long, focused, and mineral-driven, with lingering dark fruit, spice, graphite, and savory complexity.

Grilled ribeye steak
