Vins del Massis is a project by Benjamín Romeo - the winegrower with the famous Contador De Macizo is made from 50% Xarello and 50% Garnacha Blanca from selected plots and even specific vines from some of the vineyards used for Massis. The wine certainly has some spirit as some of the wines have had oak upbringing. The wine is a serious wine with a mouthfeel of lime-like tannins and a firm body. The wine is powerful and balanced which will improve even further with a few years of bottle aging. There are around 4,000 bottles made of this excellent and still very affordable quality wine;

Delicious as a standalone glass but an excellent accompaniment to seafood, salads, sushi, & risotto.

The idea for Vins del Massis came in 2006 when Belén Sánchez Benjamin Romeo and Patxi Fernández wanted to see the potential of wine-making in the home region of Catalonia near the Massis del Garraf. Both men fell in love with the dry, rugged landscape and limestone rocks in the coastal town of Garraf, just south of Barcelona. After finding a winery location in an old building from 1936 in 2008, the project started seriously. The winery focuses on local varieties of Xarello and Garnacha Blanca, originating from plots influenced by their individual soil types and the Catalan coastal mountains, which rise at the highest point inland to 2,156 feet. The grapes are harvested by hand from 80-year-old vines and reach the winery within two hours of picking without the use of herbicides. It is exciting to see how Vins del Massis combines the voluminous body and aging potential of Garnacha Blanca with the properties of Xarello with a hint of healthy air from the Mediterranean.
