History	The Monastrell comes from Spain. The name may suggest that the variety was first cultivated by the monks. The Monastrell is identical to the vine known in France as Mourvèdre. The vines are thirsty for sun and heat, but they also need a good supply of water. For these reasons the ideal climate is the Mediterranean one.
