Appearance |
The red wine Bancal del Bosc is medium ruby with a violet rim. |
Nose |
This blend of Grenache, Hairy Grenache and Carignan brings aromas of wild red berries, some balsamic hints and some delicately oaky notes over a background of Mediterranean undergrowth and aromatic herbs. |
Palate |
This wine from Celler Vinyes Domènech is moreish, fresh and uncomplicated. Juicy ripe fruit with a pinch of balsam and liquorice. Smooth tannins and a long finish with remembrances of resin wood and dry undergrowth. |
Our personal opinion |
A great introduction to the Montsant area, Bancal del Bosc 2023 is a no-nonsense red wine. |
