Josep Grau 'Volador' Montsant, 2024

Regular price $22.00

A  highlight from the mountains of Spain, this blend of Garnacha, Cariñena, and Syrah gives you a look at the bolder end of what high-altitude Spanish wines are capable of. Bright strawberry, cherry, and blood orange get you started with a bit of lift from a bouquet of purple flowers, cinnamon, and a touch of licorice. Pair this with anything off the grill or your favorite hearty paella.

From our Importer:
JOSEP GRAU
Josep Grau returned to the land where he was born in 2003 to embark on a new journey. His wines are not influenced by trends, opinion leaders’ tastes or fads. Instead, they strive to be authentic and deeply imbued with the essence: Grau is convinced that outstanding wines can be made with very little, avoiding artifice and respecting the natural language of the vineyard. Viticulture follows organic principles (certified in Spain), and is herbicide and pesticide free.
