Celler el Masroig 'Sola Fred' Montsant, Catalonia Spain
Readers rated this wine:
Supple, savoury, earthy.
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.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Olive Oil & Cracked Pepper

Celler el Masroig 'Sola Fred' Montsant, Catalonia Spain
Readers rated this wine:
Supple, muscular, earthy.
This unoaked, slate grown Carignan (90%) and Grenache blend comes from the DO of Montsant, named for the mountain near Barcelona.
You can expect intensity right out of the gate. It is supple and generous with plenty of chocolate, purple berries, toasted oak and vanilla aromas with hints of iodine. It has a fresh yet earthy character offering concentrated flavours of briary berries, dark chocolate and espresso. If not for the lively acidity, it would be brooding. A muscular wine with superfine tannins and good persistence.
