The wine
Masdeu is one of the most special wines produced by Scala Dei, the winery regarded as the Priorat's cradle. A wine of great elegance and considerable character, a Mediterranean Garnacha, aromatic and fresh, extremely fresh, originating from vines grown at an altitude of 720-800 metres on calcareous-clay soils and with an orientation facing east.
