Acustic Tinto - D.O. Montsant (Catalunya)

Acustic Tinto 2008;

Robert Parker, april 2010,
91/100
The 2008 Acustic, a blend of 55% Samso (Carinena) and 45% Garnacha aged for 10-11 months in French oak. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it offers up aromas of incense, violets, blackberry, and blueberry. Structured on the palate, this lengthy, layered effort will evolve for 2-3 years and deliver peak drinking from 2013 to 2020. It is a great value - Jay Miller

(…) Dezelfde importeur voert ook een verwarmende winterwijn uit Catalonië, de Acústic Tinto 2007 uit het ruige, bergachtige Montsant (zie foto). Behalve besfruit en niet te heftige roosteraroma’s proef daarin ook de Spaanse zon. Kan een alternatief zijn voor Pinotage (ook genoemd bij de feestwijnen).

The 2007 Acustic is a blend of 55% Samso (Carinena) and 45% Garnacha aged for 10 to 11 months in seasoned French oak. Purple-colored, it offers up an alluring perfume of smoke, mineral, underbrush, blueberry, and black cherry. This is followed by a full-bodied wine with tons of blue and black fruit, spice and mineral notes, and enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years. It should be at its best from 2010 to 2018. It is an excellent introduction to the style of the region. – Jay Miller

The 2006 Acustic is a notable value composed of 55% Samso and 45% Garnacha aged for 10 months in French oak. Dark ruby/purple, it exhibits a fragrant bouquet of cedar, spice box, mineral, and black cherry. This leads to a smooth-textured, elegant, sweetly-fruited wine already revealing considerable complexity. There is some silky tannin lurking in the background which will allow this tasty effort to drink well through 2020. – Jay Miller

Acustic Tinto 2005;

92/100
The 2005 Acustic is composed of 55% Samso (Carignan) and 45% Garnacha aged for 10 months in French oak. Saturated purple in color, it offers fragrant earth, spice, blueberry liqueur aromatics. Full-bodied, with opulent black fruit flavors, this wine is dense and packed. The tannins, oak, and acidity are well-integrated and the finish is pure and long. Drink it now and over the next 10-15 years. There are only 650 cases of this killer value. Kudos to Acustic for making great wines at more than fair prices! - Jay Miller
