Els Pics Priorat can probably be described as an entry-level wine into the world of Bodegas Mas Alta. However, anyone who can boast such qualities as an introduction to the wine world of Bodegas Mas Alta will leave connoisseurs amazed at what is yet to come. The highly talented French winemakers Philippe Cambie and Michel Tardieu, who are behind Els Pics Priorat, have created a cuvée that leaves little to be desired. 91 points from Guía Peñín, Spain's most important wine guide, and 90 points in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate speak for themselves.
The Spanish red wine from the slate-dominated Priorat region has a seductive aroma of red (raspberries) and, over time, increasingly black berries and figs. This bouquet is enriched by a pleasant spiciness (Mediterranean herbs) and nuances of cocoa and buttered toast. There is also a minerality characterized by slate.
On the palate, the impenetrable ruby red Bodegas Mas Alta Els Pics is dry and balanced with an impressive emphasis on fruit. Ripe cherries, nuances of vanilla and the wonderfully integrated wood notes create an enjoyable interplay that is perfectly rounded off by an underlying minerality. "Powerful (15% alcohol) with moderate and integrated oak and a fruit-driven personality, accessible and easy to drink with its powerful personality", says Luis Gutiérrez in the Wine Advocate.
Enjoy this Spanish cuvée from Priorat in the north-west of the country at a drinking temperature of 15 to 17 degrees, or slightly chilled at 13 to 15 degrees in summer. This all-rounder is an ideal accompaniment to high-quality grilled meat, suckling pig or traditional meatballs.
