Clos Montblanc Masia les Comes Reserva 2017 Bio, 0,75 L

WOW – the Masia Les Comes 2017 truly makes a statement! From the very first swirl, a beguiling cassis aroma rises from the glass, layered with fine leather notes and subtle roasted nuances. The bouquet immediately captivates, promising a remarkable tasting experience.

On the palate, the wine reveals both power and refinement. Its lively acidity lends freshness, while a delicate sweetness and a whisper of liquorice create tension and complexity. The oak is present yet perfectly integrated, supporting the flavours without ever overshadowing them. Dark berry fruit dominates, at once powerful and supple—exactly what one hopes for in a mature red.

The grapes hail from DO Conca de Barberà, a little-known appellation in the Catalonian hinterland. Here, Mediterranean warmth meets the coolness of higher altitudes, resulting in wines of depth, freshness, and expression. Masia Les Comes embodies this balance, offering international elegance underscored by distinctive regional character.

The finish is long, layered, and complex: dark fruit, fine spice, and a subtle herbal touch reminiscent of mint that adds graceful freshness. The 2017 is currently at a beautiful stage of maturity, yet it still holds several years of potential.

At the table, it truly shines with robust fare: juicy beef steak, slow-braised meats, or aged cheeses make the perfect companions. A red wine to enchant both Bordeaux enthusiasts and lovers of fine Spanish wines alike.
