Then main grape in this Vinya excluisve is Trepat, a native grape of the Catalonia region that explodes with dark berry fruits and oodles of Mediterranean earth: think lavender, green herbs, and sweet tomatoes. Made like Champagne, with 10 months on the lees, Clos Montblanc delivers the perfect crowd pleaser with enough intensity on the palate to please the snobbiest of bubbleheads. ~AA
