The 2019 Clos Figueras Poblets del Montsant Tinto is a beautifully mature expression of Montsant, crafted by the respected Clos Figueras estate in north-eastern Spain. Benefiting from several years of bottle age, this red blend combines ripe Mediterranean fruit with developing savoury complexity, offering a balanced and characterful reflection of the region.
The nose reveals aromas of blackberry, black cherry and plum layered with notes of dried herbs, liquorice, spice and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with supple tannins, fresh acidity and well-integrated flavours of dark berries, cocoa and savoury spice. The finish is smooth, persistent and well balanced, showing both fruit richness and maturity.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those looking for a Spanish red with a little bottle development and plenty of food-pairing versatility. Pair with grilled lamb, slow-cooked beef, Spanish-style tapas or roasted vegetable dishes. Drinking beautifully now, with the structure to continue evolving over the next 3–5 years.
