Really enjoy the strong oak notes. Get strong tart sour cherries as well. A bit of an acquired taste for me but for the price of $17.99 cdn, can’t complain.

Not much signs of age here, very inky w/gobs of sweet red fruit, there is a distinct vein of minerality running through this wine along with some dusty earthy tinges, but it’s mainly a simplistic international styled fruit focused crowd pleaser.

Bought it to try Carignan grape. The blend is 35%. Going to eat with brisket
Review:
Med high acidic, can subtly taste mineral quality. dry, has a slight Smokey and dirt quality- stronger during sniff than taste. Not as full bodied as I was expecting but that may be due to blend.

Great red. Both smooth and crisp with hints of smoke, espresso, and black cherry.

Oct 25th, 2018Pretty good wine, especially considering the price. Needs some time to open up (45 min to an hour imo). Tannins are not overwhelming though. Cherry with pepper in the finish. I will definitely be keeping a small supply on hand for groups, plus I'm interested to revisit it a few more times.

Montsant blend. 60% Grenache, 35% Carignan, 2% merlot, 2% Syrah, and1% Ull de Llebre (whatever that is!). Medium to full bodied. Cherry and earth. Nice balanced Grenache blend. At this price a great everyday wine.

Med acidity and body, med finish, dark and dry cherries, little tanning , balance. Semi dark but no as much as Barolo , some floral notes
