La Mare

La Mare is a distinctive Garnacha Negra from Montsant crafted in very limited quantities to reflect precision, origin, and identity. The name means “the mother” in Catalan, and therefore it symbolizes continuity, protection, and foundation. From the first impression, this Garnacha Negra from Montsant reveals depth and balance while maintaining a clear connection to its terroir.

The selected vineyards benefit from Montsant’s Mediterranean climate. Warm days encourage full ripening, while cooler nights preserve acidity. As a result, the grapes achieve phenolic maturity without losing freshness. The team harvests entirely by hand, and they carefully select each cluster in the vineyard. Because production remains intentionally small, the winemakers monitor every stage closely and adjust decisions with precision.

In the cellar, the team ferments the grapes under controlled conditions to preserve varietal clarity. They manage extraction carefully to maintain structure without excessive weight. Moreover, they avoid unnecessary intervention, allowing Garnacha Negra to express its character transparently. Consequently, the wine develops aromatic definition and textural refinement.

On the nose, ripe red berries combine with subtle floral hints and gentle spice. In addition, a discreet mineral undertone reflects the soils of Montsant. On the palate, the wine shows concentration yet remains composed. Fine tannins provide structure, while integrated acidity supports balance and length. Therefore, the finish unfolds gradually, offering persistence and harmony rather than power alone.

By focusing exclusively on Garnacha Negra from Montsant, La Mare expresses authenticity and restraint. It captures maturity without heaviness and intensity without exaggeration. Ultimately, this Garnacha Negra from Montsant stands as a precise and deliberate interpretation of Montsant’s native variety.
