Mas d'en Blei Priorat, Petit Blei 2022

From Mas d'en Blei in Priorat, Catalunya, Petit Blei 2022 is a dry red wine from Spain made mostly from Garnaxa with a small proportion of Cabernet Franc. At 14.0% ABV, it has a full, spicy character that suits hearty meals and robust cheese boards.

Made by winemaker Jordi, whose work has taken him across global wine regions before settling in Priorat, this is a low intervention wine with a clean, fresh style. The palate brings juicy cassis and dark fruit, followed by warming spice from six months in French oak and a hint of liquorice on the finish.
