About the wine

The Spanish wine region of Montsant, whose wine history dates back to the Romans, is located in the province of Tarragona between Zaragoza and Barcelona and includes the Priorat wine region. Montsant has around 50 wineries, which cultivate a total of 2,000 ha of vineyards. Founded in 1917, Celler El Masroig is considered one of the most important wineries in Montsant. The estate cultivates over 500 hectares of vineyards, all under the Denominació dOrigien Montsant label. Around 2.5 million kg of grapes are harvested, spread over the Mazuela (Carinyena), Tempranillo, Garnacha and Syrah varieties, most of which grow on red clay soil, an important ingredient that has a lasting effect on the quality of the wines. Drinking a wine from El Masroig means experiencing the character and culture of this magnificent landscape.
