WineDiva's Review

Enthralling, stunning, presidential. Mas La Plana is a 29-hectare vineyard in the heart of Penedes. The first vintage of this wine was 1970 and it is made from Cabernet Sauvignon.
A simply stunning red, which furnishes succulent aromas of smoked black cherries, plumcake, chocolate and warm spices, licorice and vanilla, with tomato leaf and oregano at the core. The palate is supple on the entry and then grows more textural mid-palate to finish. Incredibly well-woven and fresh despite having a few vintages under its belt. It is upstanding and presidential in character, with a lengthy finale.
