Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2007 Ombra was sourced from a single vineyard and aged in barrel for nine months. It is equal parts Garnacha, Carinena, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark ruby-colored, it reveals a perfumed nose of black licorice, fennel, underbrush, earth, black cherry, and blackberry. Ripe, forward, and succulent, this easy-going, well-balanced effort will drink well over the next four years. It is an outstanding value.

Celler la Cova dels Vins is located in DO Montsant. The vineyards are in Falset and Capçanes, between 300 and 700m above sea level. The wines are characterized by several microclimates, all of them of Mediterranean influence, and with drastic temperatures fluctuations between day and night. The diversity of soils brings complexity to the wines with slates bringing fruit and minerality; clay adding structure and concentration; and chalk with floral scents.
