Vineyard Notes: The vineyards are located a few miles southwest of Priorat, within the Terra Alta DO in Catalunya's Tarragona province in northeastern Spain. The Mas Manssanechs Vineyard is located near the town of Batea.

Tasting Notes: In this bottling of organically grown Garnacha, Cariñena and Syrah, the blend combines elegantly to produce a complex wine with floral and berry fruit aromas framed by fennel, herbs, and a touch of oak in the long finish. This Spanish red pairs well with BBQ ribs, pulled pork, chorizo, lamb vindaloo, chicken Biryani (Indian fried rice) and Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine.
