93+ "The 2018 Martinet Bru is a wine that was born in 1990 and is now their way into Priorat but more about the stone than the fruit, less ripe than in the beginning, with complexity rather than voluptuosity. It's a blend of Garnacha, Cariñena, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from three organically farmed vineyards between Falset and Torroja. The grapes are picked early but at different times, fermented with some full clusters, co-fermented when possible (Garnacha-Syrah-Merlot and Cariñena-Syrah-Cabernet) with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats. It matured in a combination of 4,500-liter oak vats, used 300-liter barrels, amphorae and glass demijohns. It's elegant and fresh, nuanced and clean. It's very harmonious and feels very balanced, with fresh flavors and very fine tannins. It's one of the finest vintages for this bottling. 51,198 bottles, 480 magnums and some larger formats were produced. It was bottled between November 2019 and January 2020." (LG) (12/2020)
Luis Gutierrez writes: "Mas Martinet needs no introduction. They are one of the pioneers of the Priorat renaissance from 1989. They are located in the outskirts of Gratallops."
