The Estate
Mas Martinet is a foundational estate in Priorat’s modern history, led by Sara Pérez with a deep commitment to place-driven wines and regenerative farming. The winery focuses on expressing individual vineyard identities through restrained cellar work. Els Escurçons represents one of the most singular and elevated expressions in the Mas Martinet portfolio.
Wine Making
Fruit is sourced from very old vines planted on steep, slate-rich llicorella soils, contributing concentration and mineral tension. Fermentation is carried out with native yeasts to preserve site character. Aging takes place in a combination of French oak barrels and larger neutral vessels to support complexity without overpowering the fruit. Bottling is done with minimal intervention to maintain purity and terroir expression.
Food Suggestions
This wine pairs exceptionally well with slow-braised meats, lamb, and game. Its structure and depth also complement dishes featuring mushrooms, truffles, or smoky spices. For cheese, pair with aged sheep’s milk or firm Spanish cheeses to match the wine’s intensity and savory character.
