Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
David and Jonas' dream Monastrell was 20 years in the making
- When David Tofterup began making wines in the late 90s, his younger brother Jonas dreamt of following in his big brother’s footsteps. In 2019 after several years of travelling and working for different wineries, the time finally came to make the dream a reality.
- The brothers have been working with Monastrell for over 20 years and their Realizado is their dream bottle. They’ve captured the truest character of the grape by using some of the oldest vines in Murcia to really bring out its true potential .
- Deep ruby red in colour, this is a super powerful yet charming bottle. It has aromas of ripe black cherries and dark plums, combined with complex notes of roasted coffee and dark chocolate. The mouth is ultra-flavourful with perfectly balanced ripe tannins, refreshing acidity and a long finish.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - David and Jonas Tofterup
- Born in Denmark (not exactly a winemaking stronghold!) David and Jonas Tofterups’ lifelong love of wine was kick-started when their parents moved to Spain in the 90s, where they took trips to visit wine regions all around the country. 15-year-old David in particular was hooked, and after finishing school, he threw himself into a winemaking career which has seen him work at wineries all over the world including Spain, France, Chile and the US.
- Jonas, 10 years the junior, naturally looked up to his brother as a superhero. As he grew up, Jonas went the academic route, becoming a fully-qualified Master of Wine who now has degree certificates falling out of his back pocket. They both dreamed that one day they would make a wine together. And now, fast forward 25 years, because of Angels… they do!
- With Angel support, David and Jonas have been able to leave their large scale corporate wine jobs to devote themselves to making their boutique-style family wines with buckets of oomph and personality. They’re specialists in going off-the-beaten-track and unearthing all the hidden gem potential Spain has to offer. And we think they’re really rather good at it.
