Clos Montblanc UNIC Syrah 2021 DO Conca de Barbera, 0,75 L

This wine beautifully demonstrates the potential of Syrah from Catalonia. In the glass, it shows a deep, dark colour with purple hues. The nose is dominated by spicy notes, red berries, and a subtle vanilla touch from oak. On the palate, it is powerful—almost a “mouthful of wine”—with abundant juiciness, vibrant acidity, and refreshing liveliness.

The tannins are firm yet ripe, providing structure and excellent ageing potential. Particularly remarkable: tasted blind, few would guess its very attractive price, as the quality rivals Syrahs from much more expensive regions.

Wines from Clos Montblanc are renowned for their varietal clarity, clean style, and impressive price-to-pleasure ratio. This Syrah is a prime example. It pairs perfectly with hearty grilled or casserole-style meat dishes, but is equally fun to serve blind to friends—the surprise is guaranteed, and always a pleasant one.
