Reserva Martí was Albet i Noya's first blended wine after a series of single-variety wines. It is named after Josep Maria Albet's son Martí, and the striking label is made from a primary school painting by Martí himself.
This wine spends a year in new French oak followed by at least two in the bottle. The 98 is now drinking at its peak, with complex oromas of leathers and spices accompanying the fruit.
