UNFOLD THE MONTSANT
mysti syrah
It is the most well-aged Mysti: 12 months in second-year French oak barrels. Black fruit, pepper, and a mature tannin that the wood has been polishing month by month. A red wine from the DO Montsant, from an organic vineyard, for a long table.

You might be surprised to know:
The black pepper note of Syrah is no figment of your imagination: it comes from rotundone, the same molecule that gives pepper its aroma. Few grapes have it so pronounced.

TASTING NOTE
Intense ruby red, with purple highlights. On the nose, blackberry and plum, black pepper and a toasted barrel finish. On the palate it is broad and enveloping, with silky tannins, and a long finish of black fruit and spices.
VINEYARDS
We aim for farming practices that complement the variety without overshadowing it. Grapes grown without herbicides or insecticides. After fermentation, the wine spends 12 months in second-year French oak, where it integrates its tannins, gains depth, and develops its spicy nuances.
Pairing
Game meats, stews, and aged cheeses. Serve at 14–16°C.
