In the evening, the "senators" meet in the village bar. Anecdotes, memories, old stories and a thorough knowledge of the terrain.
They know everything about the marzipan, they master the grenache, and the syrah offers no secrets for them. They have 243 years of experience, but their heart is young and their eyes are more alive than ever.
Likewise, they are the soul of our vineyards; they love them like no other.
Senat del Montsant is the testimony of a culture and a way of understanding life in a region with a long winemaking tradition. It is a tribute to those people who maintain the viticulture as a complement, for a reason that is in the soul: they love the vineyard, they are enthusiastic about their work, and they refuse to abandon the land and the job they were given.
Senat de Montsant expresses the identity of its appellation. A careful selection of old Grenache and Mazuela vines pays homage to the memory of an ancient viticulture. It's a red wine aged for eight months in French oak barrels. It has a deep and luminous ruby colour, and is fruity and delicate in the mouth, marked by soft tannins.
Technical Details
Tasting Notes
Deep and luminous ruby, it has an aroma of forest fruits and raspberry jam, with some lactic hints of butter and toffee. In the mouth, it is fruity and delicate, marked by soft tannins. Its three varieties come together to create a wine with a Mediterranean soul. The Grenache has a very sensual aromatic profile, with great complexity and good structure. The carignan is very intense aromatically, providing a moderate degree and an excellent acidity. The Syrah provides a nuance that helps to achieve a better balance in the wine.
