"Nervy peppery nose with ethereal red berries, peppercorns and spices. Medium body on the palate with wild berries and firm tannins, delivering a nimble yet composed mouthfeel. A nice touch of bitter spices at the end. 100% garnacha. Drink now."

"The 2022 Espectacle del Montsant was produced exclusively with Garnacha from an ancient plot in the village of La Figuera in Montsant at more than 600 meters above sea level on limestone and clay soils. This is always a ripe and powerful wine, and in the warm and dry 2022, it's no exception; it hits 15% alcohol and has a pH of 3.68. Despite everything, the wine has a pale, bright ruby color and the spectacular nose of flowers, wild berries and aromatic herbs. It's hedonistic, showy and decadent, incredibly fine-boned and elegant, with a fragile characteristic, energetic and profound. You don't notice the ripeness or alcohol at all. Always explosive and showy, this is a wine that makes heads turn. 5,000 bottles produced."

"Varietal Garnacha from one of the most incredible slopes in Montsant, with vines well over 100 years old. Delicate in style, and so varietally Garnacha; bright raspberry and strawberry fruit, rose petals, sappy herbs and warm earth. Gorgeous floral characters and powedery tannins. A subtle Garnacha but one of the very best. 2024-2032"
