Joan Sangenis makes one of Priorat's best white wines in an area that is famed for its reds. This barrel fermented white - using new French and American oak - spends about six months in the barrel. The vines are grown in the valley floor of the spectacular Mas d'en Compte estate, and consistently produce opulent spicey wines with great fruit complexity - from tart citrics to warm tropical fruits.
