The oak was much better integrated in the 2015 Les Sorts Blanc, a pure Garnacha Blanca with balsamic aromas of bay leaf and fennel, and a core of white fruit. The palate is fresh and lively, with some chalky minerality. 7,000 bottles produced.

Vanilla and beeswax notes frame dried pear, herbal and citrus flavors in this broad, oily white. Quite chewy, with tangy acidity. A bit rustic in character but expressive nonetheless. Drink now. 250 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Montsant Select to Add

The 2010 Les Sorts Blanc is also pure Garnacha Blanca fermented and aged in oak barrel for five months, but the wood is a lot more evident than in the Etnic Blanc, with plenty of dusty, oaky aromas of vanilla, smoke and just a hint of butter over some ripe yellow fruit. Drink now-2015. Well- crafted, well-oaked, reliable and affordable wines to be found at this address. Importer: Les Sorts brands: Boutique Wine Collection.

The 2009 Les Sorts Blanc is a pure Garnacha Blanca aged in 90% new French oak, the rest in acacia barrels. The creamy new oak dominates the nose, but it remains attractive, with apple blossom and peachy aromas. The palate is simple and primal, with grapefruit and bruised apple leading to a toffee-tinged finish. This is a simple, commercial Montsant white. Drink now.
