Com Tu, Montsant

The property where this magic occurs is called Miramar, located at 580m. above sea level. The vines are 100% Garnacha, mostly between 35-50 years old and some are even centennial. The soil is mostly red clay and has a bit of limestone. On the land, apart from vines, we can also find almond and apple trees and a small farmhouse. The 2016 harvest was very promising, after a slow and delicate but effective eighteen months fermentation. This gave the wine its complexity; mineral force together with a light orange peel fragrance and a taste that reminds us of red berries (cherries, strawberries,…).

Com Tu, Montsant 2021	94+ Wine Advocate There is a change in image in the 2021 Com Tu, a village red from La Figuera in Montsant, with a label that is similar to the one from the new rosé, a drawing of the village. They used a high percentage of full clusters, and it matured in an old 5,000-liter foudre for one year and then fine-tuned in concrete. It is super floral and perfumed, completely different from Clos Mogador, with a light extraction, a pale color, and contained ripeness and alcohol (14%), with the sapidity from the limestone soils and very fine chalky tannins. 13,000 bottles produced. They have planted more vines and purchased some older ones to increase the volume in the future. 93 Vinous The 2021 Com Tu is 100% Garnatxa sourced from La Figuera, a small town high in the Montsant mountains that is home to many old vines. Fermented with 30% whole clusters and aged for a year in foundres and concrete, this garnet wine reveals garrigue-like aromas with a sour cherry core and a reductive character. Dry and silky, it offers a compact mouthfeel that enhances the flavors, leading to a lingering and nuanced finish. The cool 2021 vintage contributed to a leaner palate	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
Com Tu, Montsant 2022	94 James Suckling A stemmy nose with wild berries, dried Mediterranean herbs and nice touches of sauerkraut and ripe, sweet red berries. This is firm and textured on the palate, with round, minerally fruit gliding through to a lengthy finish. Drink now or hold. 94 Wine Advocate The 2022 Com Tu is a village red from La Figuera in Montsant, from a higher-altitude place with different soils, limestone and clay, produced with Garnacha from three plots. Forty percent of the wine fermented with semi-carbonic maceration and 60% with a long destemmed maceration, and it matured in old foudres and concrete for 18 months. This is the wine started by the youngest son, Anderson, now continued by his brothers, as he’s moved to gastronomy and now looking into starting a wine project in Terra Alta. This has a very classical nose, with notes of smoked bacon that transported me to the Rhône. It comes from a vineyard that is similar to the ones used by Christian Barbier to make his Deunido, but this is extremely different, and he started working with cover crops. They used a new label this year. Christian told me it was inspired by the wines from Viña Tondonia (it also made me think of the old Masia Barril labels), showing the village (it’s a village wine) and with a traditional feeling to it. The wine has a Mediterranean profile with plenty of aromatic herbs, decayed flowers and an earthy but subtle touch. The palate is medium-bodied, with a textured mouthfeel and slightly dusty tannins. 12,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2024.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
