Venus de Cartoixà 2020 is the result of the ambitious goal of winemakers René Barbier (Clos Mogador) and Sara Pérez (Mas Martinet): to create a great natural Mediterranean white wine for aging as part of their Venus La Universal project in the D.O. Montsant. Aged 12-14 months in barrel and over two years in bottle, this natural white wine is made from over 60-year-old vines of the cartoixà (xarel·lo) variety. A remarkable discovery.

The winery
Winery
The Venus La Universal winery was established in 1999, led by Sara Pérez (Mas Martinet) and René Barbier (Clos Mogador), determined to produce wines in the promising Montsant area, even before the appellation was officially founded. The winery's goal is to create exceptional wines, always committed to organic farming and genuine respect for the environment and surroundings. They work on land where the native grape varieties garnacha and cariñena take center stage, well complemented by international varieties such as cabernet sauvignon, syrah, and merlot.
