D3: Spain: Background: Caroline Dessort on Monastrell
Caroline Dessort is from the Yecla wine region in Spain. One of the key grape varieties is Monastrell, also known as Mourvèdre in France and Mataró in Australia. It produces quite heavy, tannic wines that can be high in alcohol. It is made into a single varietal but more commonly it is blended with other grapes such as Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon to make an easier drinking, smoother wine. In Yecla they tend to blend Monastrell with Petit Verdot, Syrah and Merlot.
I thought the questions were excellent, an extremely valuable revision tool. They really helped highlight areas I thought I had revised and understood but clearly had not, which has enabled me to focus on key areas to revisit and study before going into the exam... I think it is a great resource and an essential revision aid for any WSET 3 students wishing to gain a competitive edge and successfully pass the WSET 3 exam.
