Based in the high hills of Priorat, Mas Martinet produces Els Escurçons from Garnacha planted at higher elevations on slate soils. Grapes are fermented with indigenous yeasts followed by ageing in French oak barrels to build complexity. The balanced 2018 vintage delivered freshness and precision. Compared with the warmer 2017 vintage, this release shows slightly greater elegance, combining red cherry, raspberry and herbal notes with refined tannins and mineral backbone typical of high-altitude Priorat Garnacha. https://www.masmartinet.com/
