4.5 / 5 - "This is a Priorat with as a base the two most famous grapes from the DOQ; Garnatxa and Carinyena. Topped up with some Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Like we mentioned before it’s matured for 15 months in oak which result in a nose with loads of vanilla, prune and balsamic notes. There is tobacco, plum, leather and minerals, the taste from the llicorella soil shines through on the palate. Dark chocolate, blackberry, raisins, licorice, walnuts, mocha and bell pepper. Priorat as we know it, loads of minerals and a well-matured oak influence! Great wine with a very bold nose!" - Grape Dummies

Mas d’en Xes fruit ripeness comes in different stages, as long as the different plots reach different levels of fruit and ripe tannins. First sorting is done plot by plot. The grapes are being sorted by hand. All lots are cold-soaked for 1-2 days before beginning their fermentation in stainless steel tanks. A gas rumbling technique was performed twice a day with macerations that lasted more than 30 days for an optimum flavour and tannin extraction. The free run wine was racked and the skins and stems were gently pressed, being returned to their original maceration tanks, then racked into the barrel for ageing.
