Joan d'Anguera is one of the leading estates in a rising Spanish appellation, Monsant, near Priorat, southwest of Barcelona. The vines, situated at an altitude of nearly 300 metres, are planted on clay-limestone soil on which the 50-year-old Grenache and Carignan grapes, as well as Cabernet and Syrah grapes over 20 years old, express themselves wonderfully. The wines are harmoniously aged in French and American oak barrels.
