Red Montsant Wine

2008 Montsant Grenache Noir, Carignan

The Besllum Red Montsant Wine, a splendid vintage from 2008, showcases the exceptional qualities of Grenache Noir and Carignan, two varietals that thrive in the rugged terrain of the Montsant region. This captivating red wine boasts a full-bodied structure, complemented by a high acidity that enlivens the palate and promotes a refreshing profile. The tannins are notable yet well-integrated, providing a firm backbone that supports the wine's complexity. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing layers of ripe black fruits, plums, and a hint of spice, which are hallmarks of this outstanding area. The dryness of the wine enhances its food-friendly nature, making it a perfect companion for a variety of dishes, from hearty stews to grilled meats.
