Masroig Sola Fred Montsant 2010
Montsant, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainOne of Spain's top-cooperatives makes this smoky, spice, black fruited reds with a hint of minerality. The attack is medium rich with plenty of acidity and fine-grained tannins for structure and more dark fruits and floral, fresh cherry notes underneath. A stylish, fun red that works with any grilled meats and or chicken dish. Just complicated enough to entertain the severest critic. The blend is mostly carignan with about 10 garnacha, all vines are 20 to 40 years old and grown near the southern extent of Monsant near to Priorat.Tasted: 05 August 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $16.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Waldorf Wine Group |
