A wine score is the quickest, simplest way for a wine critic to communicate their opinion about the quality of a wine.

  • Tasting Notes

    Mas La Plana 2018 has a deep garnet color with a bright ruby rim, reflecting its concentration and youthfulness. On the nose, it reveals a complex, elegant bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, blackberry and plum, with hints of dark chocolate, tobacco leaf and cedar. Subtle notes of graphite, licorice and roasted spices add to the wine's depth and character. The palate is rich, full-bodied and impeccably structured, offering concentrated black fruit flavors supported by vibrant acidity and fine tannins. The oak is beautifully integrated, bringing notes of mocha, clove and a touch of vanilla. The wine unfolds gracefully and finishes long with lingering impressions of cocoa powder, aromatic herbs and spices. A bold yet refined Cabernet Sauvignon with impressive cellaring potential. Mas La Plana 2018 can be enjoyed now or cellared for up to 20 years.

  • Vinification and Aging

    The grapes are skinned for 15 to 25 days, and fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and oak foudres.

    Alcoholic fermentation lasts around 7 days, at a temperature of between 25 and 28°C.

    The wine is then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 85% of which are new.

  • Terroir

    Deep, well-drained alluvial soils, yellowish-gray-brown in color, with moderate water retention, composed of alternating layers of gravel, sand and clay.
