Domaine Gauby - Côtes Catalanes Muntada 2019

RVF
"Delicious!"
"We finish with La Muntada, a selection of the estate's finest terroirs, which perfectly expresses the depth of the schistose and calcareous marl soils. A subtle nose of rockrose and blackberry with a lush and deep palate, and tannins that enhance the wine and ensure its longevity." (Le Guide de la RVF 2022) • Please note: limited quantities available.

About wine:
We finish with La Muntada, a selection of the estate's finest terroirs, which perfectly expresses the depth of the schistose and limestone marl. A subtle nose of rockrose and blackberry with a lush, deep palate and tannins that enhance the wine and ensure its longevity.
About the estate:
Since his beginnings in the mid-1980s, Gérard Gauby has been an inspiring, demanding, and passionate winemaker. His vines are cultivated with love and respect for the plants and the ecosystem. He has revealed to the world the complexity and potential of the Calce terroir with its limestone and ferruginous schist soils. The winemaker has also successfully evolved his style towards less mature, purer and more airy wines. Accompanied by his son, he continues this quest, with his vintages gaining in expression and deliciousness. The whites are very straightforward, with superb longevity and controlled aging. The reds are pure and deep. The 2021 vintage is reaching new heights in both colors.
