Mas de la Rosa is a Grand Vineyard in Priorat, established at the beginning of the 20th century. The 2021 Mas de La Rosa Gran Vinya Classicada is 100% Carinena that underwent 12 months of aging in concrete and Austrian foudres. This pristine wine features notes of strawberry and pomegranate, along with violets, watermelon, freshly crushed plums and hints of clove. Dry and compact, with a talc texture and an infusion-like mouthfeel, it delivers a juicy, thirst-quenching, long-lasting nish. Minutes later, a subtle bay leaf tone lingers on the palate. This is a complex and beautiful expression of old vines from Priorat. Drinking Window 2025-2036.
