Score

90

"The 2018 Acústic Blanc is 85% Garnacha Blanca, 10% Macabeo, 3% Pansal (the local name for Xarello) and 3% Garnacha Gris from different parts of Montsant that partly fermented in new barrels and matured with the fine lees in vat for eight months. It's quite ripe and full-bodied, with spices and smoke intermixed with notes of yellow fruit, fennel and herbs. It's round and textured, quite powerful. 17,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2019."

"Bright straw-yellow. Dried pear, peach pit and lemon peel on the pungent nose. In a fleshy, savory style, offering orchard and pit fruit flavors complemented by herb and honey nuances. Closes smooth and broad, with strong tenacity and a lingering fennel note."
