About Bodegas Luzón

Bodegas Luzón is one of the oldest wineries in the DOP Jumilla, the land of the Monastrell grape. This grape variety is essential to Bodegas Luzón and is cultivated according to a long family tradition. The history of the bodega begins in the distant island of Luzon, the largest in the Philippine archipelago. The founder, Don José Molina, returned from there to his hometown of Jumilla after his military service in 1814 and named his land "Finca Luzón" after the island that always remained in his memory. Subsequently, the winery was managed for several generations by the women of the Molina family, which proved the bodega’s unmistakable pioneering spirit even back then. This love for tradition and passion for innovation are reflected in the wines of Bodegas Luzón to this day. Spanning over 500 hectares at an altitude of 450 to 600 meters, the vineyards are cultivated across a variety of soils and climate zones, which makes it possible to grow not only the essential Monastrell grape, but also other varieties such as Garnacha Tintorera, Viognier, and Sauvignon Blanc, to name but a few.

The Region

Murcia is a smaller, lesser-known region in the far southeast of Spain. It borders Andalusia, Castile-La Mancha, Valencia, and the Mediterranean Sea. There are three DO wine appellations in Murcia: Yecla in the north, Jumilla in the south, and Bullas in the western province. The classic wine of these regions is a robust, fruit-forward red wine made from Monastrell. In addition to Monastrell, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah are also grown for red wines, as well as Macabeo, Airen, and Merseguera for white wines.
