Something is enchanting about the wines of Montsant, and Les Maiols is a perfect example, lifted, floral, and utterly drinkable. Made by the Anguera brothers from their younger vines, this is Grenache in its purest, freshest form: bright, aromatic, and ready to be enjoyed with just about anything. Think of it as Montsant’s answer to a thirst-quenching vin de soif—delicate yet complex, structured yet effortlessly drinkable.

Sensory Description:
This is Garnacha at its most perfumed and expressive—imagine a basket of wild strawberries and cherries, laced with dried rose petals and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs. The palate is silky and light on its feet, with crunchy red fruit, a hint of pomegranate, and an underlying minerality that keeps everything vibrant. It’s medium-bodied, refreshingly juicy, and almost dangerously easy to drink.
Winemaker's Background:
The Anguera family has been shaping Montsant’s wine scene for seven generations, but Joan and Josep have taken the estate in a bold new direction. They shifted toward biodynamics, earning Demeter certification in 2011, and focused on reviving traditional Catalan varieties while reducing intervention in the cellar. The result? Wines that are pure, balanced, and brimming with energy. Whole-cluster fermentations, aging in neutral vessels, and minimal sulfur use allow the terroir to shine.
Serving Suggestions:
This is a wine that thrives with a slight chill—about 55°F (13°C) will bring out its brightest aromatics. It’s a natural pairing for grilled vegetables, roasted chicken, or classic Spanish tapas like pan con tomate and jamón. A bottle to pop open at a picnic, serve alongside a weeknight meal, or enjoy on its own as a refreshing red that’s both easygoing and deeply satisfying.
