91 POINTS - ANTONIO GALLONI      [Read More]

divider

The D.O. Montsant is a horse shoe shaped appellation that surrounds the DO Priorat on three sides. It should have been included in the Priorat appellation but was excluded when it was designated for economic reasons. The winery is located near the town of Capcanes next to a nature reserve park. Despite the proximity to the Mediterranean this high elevation location is buffered by a series of mountains. The soils are similar to Priorat with Montsant being a bit more complex with a mixture of slate, sandy clay and chalk.

The wine is a blend of Old Vine Garnacha, Mazuelo (Carinena), and Syrah.  It is stainless steel fermented and undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrel.  It is then aged for 10 months in premium French Oak barrels 2 an 3 years old.
