£134.54 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Spain
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
2014 was classical Mediterranean vintage after a much cooler 2013. The 2014 Mas del Serral comes from the oldest vines they have, mostly Xarel.lo with a handful of Bastard Negre grapes, cropped from a long-cycle year when the grapes developed full aromas and flavors. The yeasts were selected from the same vineyard, fermented in concrete and put to referment in bottle. It has a phenomenal nose, subtle, elegant and nuanced. It has a very textured palate with abundant, very effervescent and small bubbles that fill your mouth and lift up the wine, making it very long. It has 12.09% alcohol, with a pH of 3.02 and 6.5 grams of acidity, without any added sugar. It shows terrific balance and is precise, clean and focused, complex, elegant and long, finishing very dry and with a chalky sensation. All the bottles have the disgorgement date handwritten on the label. In 2014, there were 2,500 bottles and 400 magnums. The bottle I tasted was disgorged the sixth of March 2025, 10 days before I tasted it. It was put in bottle in June 2012 after it spent a few months with lees in concrete eggs. This should be long lived. I also tasted from a bottle of the 2007, which is holding nicely, more polished and with smaller bubbles.
