The Wine

Look for red fruit notes (cherry) aromatics this is an impressive wine for the money! A blend of Garnacha and Cariñena (80/20) from Vendrell's younger vines. Drink now through 2025. I love the label!

May not be vegan! I see no details on fining.

The Winery

Josep-Maria Vendrell owns about 50 acres of vines not far from Falset - the largest town in Montsant. He keeps the best old-vine grapes for his own production, selling the rest to Miguel Torres. The trend in Priorat, and surrounding Montsant, is to produce formulaic wines featuring very ripe fruit with high alcohol and gobs of new oak - a style that globe-trotting winemaker-consultants insist will get high point scores from certain influential journalists.

I love that this young winemaker is bucking that trend. He understands that his unique terroir and his very old-vine (50-80 years) Garnacha and Cariñena will produce a more interesting, unique wine. A winemaker to watch! Already at the top of his game after only four vintages on his own.

Vendrell’s vineyards are farmed organically - without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides. They are periodically plowed for weed control and to encourage deep root growth - a technique that brings forth the underlying character of the terroir and increases the vineyard's drought resistance.

His modern winery is still of a size that is manageable by one person. With the help of his father and an old family friend in the vineyards, this hand-made wine sees minimal handling in the cellars and is embued with the verve and energy to leap out of the glass with its enticing aromas.
