One can make the argument that in 2005, Martinet Bru, Mas Martinet’s “second” wine, is every bit as good and quite a bit more approachable than Clos Martinet. This wine is entirely solid and free of holes. It shows deep, ripe cassis and berry flavors along with chocolaty richness and accents of sage and herbs. Drink now through 2012. A Europvin, Christopher Cannan selection, imported by multiple importers, including Michael Skurnik Wines.

Don’t fret over this big boy’s reductive, gassy aromas. They blow off, leaving schisty plum, licorice and raspberry flavors. Moderately tannic, with fine structure, Martinet ranks as one of Priorat’s grand crus. Complainers may say it needs more grit and structure; the upside is that it’s almost ready now and will round into quick form over the next two years.

Elevated from the first nosing through the multilevel palate and then out the door. Fragrant like an aromatic magnet, with red licorice, wild flower and jammy fruit. A potent brew, with some medicinal cherry to the toasty finish. Super healthy, with an aggressive personality. Could use a year or two to settle because now it’s rather tannic. Imported by Europvin.
