Espectacle del Montsant 2021 Espectacle Vins

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (99)

The 2021 Espectacle del Montsant has a bright ruby color and a very perfumed and elegant nose with no signs of excess ripeness, with 14.5% alcohol. As 2021 was a much cooler year, the wine is more elegant than ever (following the cooler years like 2014), textured and with very fine tannins. It has an intoxicating nose of red fruit and blood orange, violets and a spicy twist with pungent flavors and a finish that is dominated by violet pastille and is pungent, intense, clean and very long. It's multi-layered, precise, nuanced and ever-changing in the glass. It has to be one of the most elegant and finest vintages of Espectacle, with the natural freshness from the year. Bravo! There are some 7,500 bottles of this elixir.

The 2021 Espectacle is 100% Garnatxa Negra from an old, terraced, north-facing vineyard with a panoramic view of the Montsant River Valley. Crafted in a cool vintage, this garnet-hued red offers liqueur-like aromas of flowers and bitter orange, along with a deep core of sour cherry marmalade. Dry, light and silky, it glides on the palate with a weightless yet taut mouthfeel. This lean, thirst-quenching red is full of energy.
