Zambra
Jumilla is a small appellation located in central-eastern Spain, west of Alicante. Jumilla is one of the few places in Europe that was spared during the Phylloxera epidemic of the late 1800's. The sandy soil, which is anathema to the Phylloxera insect, protected the vineyard and thus, Jumilla has some of the oldest vines in Spain, as well as the largest number of ungrafted vines. Most of the region is planted to Mourvèdre, locally known as Monastrell. Jumilla's summers boast hot days and cool nights, resulting in fantastically ripe grapes with good acidity.
Bodegas San Isidro (BSI), is the oldest and only cooperative in Jumilla, and has been in existence since 1934. BSI decided to play a key role in Research & Development, especially in the field of Monastrell. The Technical Director, Francisco Pardo, is a Monastrell expert. Together with BSI's winemaker, Diego Cutillas and with the help of national star winemaker, Ignacio de Miguel, BSI has committed itself to quality. The Bodega also enjoys a close relationship with the University of Murcia, which is vital for innovation in the region. BSI has been the first to apply many new viticultural techniques, grape varieties and oenological practices.
From BSI, in the heart of the Jumilla region of Spain, comes Zambra Sangría! Zambra is a refreshing drink with the perfect balance between red wine and selected fruit flavors, such as peach, orange and lemon. Sweet and smooth, Zambra provides a pleasant and refreshing flavor profile that is well balanced. Available in four different sizes, this fusion of red wine and citrus fruit flavor, makes the perfect before dinner cocktail as well as a great companion to many Latin, Mexican or South American dishes.
Zambra Sangría is Walt Disney World's official Sangría.
