Embarking on a captivating journey of exploration that commences with the intriguing story behind it, extends to its captivating appearance, alluring aroma, and delightful taste, and culminates with the profound emotions it elicits.

Our hope is that each bottle transports you to the vineyards, towns, and people who made it possible, and that you enjoy every sip with an appreciation for the art and craft of winemaking.

M.S.B. Pur

Pur is our most iconic red wine, with a production of less than 800 bottles and elaborated in the small and beautiful town of Porrera, in the Qualified Designation of Origin Priorat; one of the only two qualified regions in Spain. Elaborated with the big-hearted winemakers Josep Maria del Aguila & Mayte Pellicer, this wine is undoubtedly the true DNA of Priorat.

The wine is elaborated from two single and unique vineyards named “La Balma”’ with vines ranging the age of 20 to 30 years old, and “La Parada” with vines ranging from 80 to 100 years of age, both planted with the red grape varieties, Carignan and Red Grenache, the two queens of the region.

After a hand-picked selected harvest and a following controlled alcoholic fermentation, we then leave the wine resting for approximately 12 months in 1000 litres Inox tanks before moving it into second and third year French Oak Barrels. Here the wine remains in the aging stage for approximately 8 months before finally bottling it.

Pur is a non-filtered aged red wine that preserves the purity of artisanal and traditional winemaking with minimal both, human and chemical intervention, taking you into a sensorial journey through the vineyards of this small town of Porrera, in Priorat. It is a wine of landscape, mind, soul and body, elegant and very fine. A small treasure that represents the authenticity and rusticity in its most subtle version.

A medium to full-bodied structured red wine showcasing red and black fruits, spices, smooth tannins and a long persistent after-taste; here is where you’ll unlock the secrets of this dark ruby rustic gem.

M.S.B. Aura

Aura is another of our most precious red wines which we make in the renowned Designation of Origin Montsant, inside Priorat county. We ally here with the winemaker Joan Ignasi Domènech that brings his expertise on this land to elaborate a little treasure with less than 900 bottles produced.

The wine comes from the vineyards of different “Finques” within the villages of Capçanes, El Masroig and Els Guiamets, with vines ranging the age of 20 to 30 years old and from the grape variety Red Grenache.

After a hand-picked selected harvest and a following controlled alcoholic fermentation, we age Aura in 300L French Oak Barrels and separately, a small part in a 900L Concrete Egg prior to doing the final blend.

We wanted to make a wine where the grape variety Red Grenache could showcase the best of itself in an idyllic Mediterranean setting, where amongst the rest of varieties, we believe this one expresses its enormous and versatile potential in this region better than any other one, resulting in what we believe it is, a wine of the highest possible quality and with great aging potential for years to come.

Aura is a full-bodied red wine that perfectly represents the Mediterranean soul of this variety, grown and elaborated in Capçanes, El Masroig and El Guiamets, small villages in Priorat county within the Montsant Designation of Origin.

Powerful, rich, complex, precise, fresh and with a long finish, Aura will fill your palate and move your senses to true enjoyment.

M.S.B. Essència

Essència is an Organic red wine that we elaborate in the Designation of Origin Conca de Barberà with the young President of the Designation, but at the same time experienced and passionate winemaker Bernat Andreu, producing less than 1000 bottles.

This wine is made out of the red grape variety “Trepat”, known for its elegant, feminine and subtle characteristics. It comes from 30 years old vines from the Vineyard “Finca La Sort d’en Martí” and from 60 to 90 years old vines planted in the vineyards “Finca Les Alzinetes, Finca La Butxaca & Finca Les Parades”, adding these last ones a touch of complexity to the wine without renouncing to it’s electric youth.

After a hand-picked selected harvest and the following controlled alcoholic fermentation, we then leave the wine from the 30 year old single vineyard resting for approximately six months in 1000 litres Inox tanks while the wine coming from the other 3 vineyards with ages ranging from 60 to 90 year old are aged in french oak barrels for six months before finally blending it and bottling it.

Essència is perfume, a light-bodied red and the most feminine treasure in our collection. It is a light wine with a very low alcohol content that embodies finesse, elegance and an explosion of red fresh recently cut fruits that stand out over a background of an aromatic bouquet of spices and all, led by the characteristic freshness of this outstanding grape variety.

A wine that undoubtedly recalls the great French wines with Burgundian soul. Direct, honest and subtle, Essència will accompany you throughout your most purest wine experiences.

M.S.B. Daurat

Daurat is an Organic white wine with aging that we elaborate in the little town of Torrelavit, in the Designation of Origin Penedès, one of the oldest wine regions in Spain.

Brought to light with the collaboration of the renowned winemaker Ramon Parera, a true believer in championing for low chemical and human intervention practices in all the winemaking processes, we produce here less than 1200 bottles.

Elaborated with 95% Xarel·lo and a 5% of Malvasia de Sitges that adds a hint of perfume to it, our wine comes from different selected vineyards within “Finca Can Comas” with ages that range from 30 to 55 years old.

After a hand-picked selected harvest and the following controlled alcoholic fermentation, 65% of the wine is aged in second-year 500 litres Oak Vats “Bocois” before blending it with the remaining 35% that has been resting in cement “Foudres”, prior to finally bottling it.

Daurat means “Golden”, a tribute to the historical region of Penedès and also, to the colour this grape reveals over time as it ages to its best potential.

A crisp-dry white wine, mineral, sharp, complex, precise and with an outstanding acidity, this wine is an unparalleled complement with your gastronomic experiences anytime, anywhere.

M.S.B. Blanca

Blanca is a young white wine that we elaborate in Gandesa, in the Designation of Origin Terra Alta which has become increasingly known for their outstanding white wines made out of the grape variety White Grenache, also called “Vernatxa”, a variety showcasing its pure Mediterranean personality while claiming to have 1/3 of the whole world’s plantation here in this small region.

We do this wine with the winemaker Joan Angel Liberia, one of the most experienced and reputed connoisseur in the area, elaborating less than 1000 bottles.

After a hand-picked selected harvest, the grapes are stored in small boxes and cooled down to 0º-5º at the sorting table to make sure that only those grapes with the right polyphenolic ripeness find their way into the vats. There, a controlled alcoholic fermentation happens and the wine is stabilized before it is moved the into French oak barrels to be bottled.

Blanca is honesty bottled. A white wine aged for only 4 months in second year french oak barrels, to pursue the purity of the variety coming from vineyards that are over 40 years of age, planted in “panal” and “tapàs” soils.

Dry, fresh and with intense aromas and flavours of pear & melon, a flowery background, mineral sensations and a persistent aftertaste, Blanca expresses the most fresh side of the grape while it is perfectly balanced with the complexity of the oak, adding volume and accentuating the warm soul that this grape variety showcases when grown in our Mediterranean climate.

M.S.B. Lila

Lila is our Rosé Wine elaborated in the Designation of Origin Empordà, the idyllic land of colours, sea and gastronomy with a production of less than 1000 bottles.

We combined forces with the young but well experienced winemaker Josep Serra, and we elaborate this wine with the intention of transporting you from the most beautiful Lavender landscapes of Provence in France, to the North-East Coast of Catalunya.

Elaborated with the red grape variety “Red Grenache” and the white grape variety “Macabeu” to add structure and acidity to the wine, Lila will make you feel as if you were in the alluring “Costa Brava”, in the Empordà region.

After a hand-selected harvest and controlled alcoholic fermentation, we blend the two varieties with percentages as we decide on the final tasting before finally bottling it.

Lila is a landscape of colors, aromas, textures and flavours. It is a Rosé wine with a very light salmon color, intense aromas of red fruits and flowers and a unctuous fresh run through your palate.

Drink Lila perfectly chilled whether alone or to enjoy it with some snacks and tapas before jumping into the the main party of a gastronomic experience!
