Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

We also tasted the 2023 Els Escurçons, which was bottled a little earlier, in November 2024. It follows the path of the 2022 but with a little more exuberance, a more generous expression of a very concentrated Mediterranean Garnacha, rounder, with a peachy character, gentler and very appealing, with the wild Priorat side but in the background. Today, it still shows pretty much the effect of the vintage, but the true character of the vineyards should resurface with more time in bottle. At the moment, it's a little behind the 2022.

Description

Els Escurçons is a red wine made from 100% Garnacha Tinta by the Mas Martinet Viticultors winery under the D.O.Q. Priorat appellation. Priorat.
This wine is made exclusively with grapes from the vineyard that bears the same name and is located 600 metres above sea level on soils of llicorella ferruginosa (weathered slatewith iron and feldspar).

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand with grape selection in the vineyard. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts in different containers, wooden vats and cement tanks, together with their lees and with very gentle and brief washings for approximately one month.
The wine is aged in 60-litre amphorae and demijohns for 12 months, with a combination of percentages depending on the vintage. Bottling is done without any kind of clarification.

Taste

Els Escurçons is a fluid red wine with fruity aromas and spicy notes. On the palate it has a powerful, fresh entry with a very pleasant, sweet and pleasant aftertaste. It is a medium-bodied wine with adequate acidity and intensity. The finish is elegant and long.

A mature and elegant wine.

Els Escurçons is a wine that represents a journey through time, a reflection of the wines produced on this very special estate, a true classic!
In the gastronomic field, this wine is especially recommended for business lunches, dinners with friends or as a gift and as an accompaniment to white meats, grilled lamb and game, among others.
