A powerful, warm and mystical red.
In 1770, the Montserrat Abbey ordered the construction of Finca L'Aranyó, an inhospitable place in an area known for its extreme climate and harsh conditions. There the disobedient friars were sent, who purged their penance by tilling this land. They were the ones who discovered a 'terroir' with good potential to make a superior wine. According to legend, large barrels mysteriously disappeared, although others said that angels carried them to the heights. This is the moment to verify the grandeur of a completely mystical wine.
