So much wine you get for the money. Montsant is a region that will get more famous in the future. In some years I think, it will be as well known as the neighbour Priorat I suppose. In the moment you can buy good wines there for verry little money. The Acustic is a heavy red wine with notes of bitter almond, dark chocolate and hints of cherry a good wine for a pleasant evening in the colder season. Cheers

From 75cl, perfect cork, optically identical to the TCA-ridden disaster which ruined last night’s bottle. Opened but not decanted 90 minutes, a good option right now for this wine. Delicious. 90P

From 75cl, optically perfect cork branded "CS" and "18-18", no lot number on label, so I don't know if this ruined bottle was from the same batch of Acustic 2016 I have had too many defective bottles from in the past. Massive TCA, completely undrinkable. Dear Albert, you are a wonderful winemaker. Since 2010 I have bought exactly 250 bottles of wine made by you, 48 of which I have passed on to grateful friends, the rest I have (mainly) enjoyed very much serving to friends, family and colleagues (that is, unless they were corked, which too many of the 2016 vintage were). Why do you keep using cork when there are reliable alternatives available?

From 75cl, good cork. Excellent on opening, even better one day later. Meltingly delectable tannins, otherwise as previously noted. 90-91P

Same vintner as Ritme. Excellent wine maker and is a must have in your cellar. Light, but bold flavor. Incredible balance of flavor and tannins.
BUY AGAIN!!
