Bodegas Luzon is the leader in the making and in the export of quality wines from the D.O. Jumilla (Murcia, Spain).
Bodegas Luzon was established in 1916 and has more than 600 hectares of its own vineyards, with several prestigious varieties such as: Monastrell
(Mourvédre), Tempranillo, Cabernet- Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot as red grapes and Macabeo and Chardonnay as white grapes.
Since the Fuertes family ( www.grupofuertes.es ) bought Bodegas Luzon in 2004, they began the difficult and costly process of undertaking a programme
of modernisation, unprecedented in the region. The production process for quality control was greatly improved through the acquisition of pneumatic
presses, cooling systems, autovinifiers and high-tech laboratory.

Region Description

Jumilla is a large arid region in southeastern Spain. Temperatures range from freezing to over 100F in the summer. Monastrell (mouvedre) grapes grow well in this region and account for most of the production. Garnacha Tinta, Garnacha Tintorera, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah are also grown in Jumilla. Phylloxera hit Jumilla in 1989, later than most regions in Europe. Most of the growers who replanted also modernized their wine production techniques. Jumilla wines have been improving consistently year-over-year for the last two decades. The top Jumilla wines are now among the better wines from Spain and hold their own in competition with the best wines in the world.
