The red wines begin with the 2009 Brao composed of 50% Garnacha and 50% Samso (Carinena) aged for 12 months in French oak. It reflects the high quality of the vintage in its expressive nose of Asian spices, incense, and black fruits, the richness of its fruit, and its 5-7 years of aging potential. Its drinking window will extend from 2015 to 2024, if not longer. Acustic Celler is establishing itself as one of the leaders in the Montsant DO.Importer: Steve Miles Selections, Denver, CO; tel.

The 2009 Brao is a blend of 70% Carinena and 30% Garnacha from 60- to 95-year-old vines grown organically, though not yet certified. It is aged for 12 months in new and one-year-old French oak. It has a generous bouquet of mineral, chalky aromas and hints of balsamic. The palate is medium-bodied, with succulent red currant and wild strawberry fruit. The tannins are rounded and sensual with a confit-like finish that is irresistible. Superb. Drink now-2017. Acustic Cellers was founded in 2004 by Albert Jane, who tends 17 hectares of his own plus another 24 hectares under contract. Importer: Steve Miles Selections, Denver, CO; tel. (303) 495-3811
