El Masroig 2018 Sola Fred Montsant 750ml

This un-oaked, slate grown Carignan comes from the DO of Montsant, which is named after the mountain near Barcelona. The 2018 version of this wine is just as tasty as previous but much more succulent. Expect smoked spice and roasted meat, fleur de sel and iodine all wrapped up in strawberry and saddle leather. It is supple yet juicy, with licorice, spiced and strawberry flavours dominating the palate. Wonderfully balanced, and that savouriness you experience on the nose returns on a lengthy finish.
