Natur Montsant is a winery located in Margalef, on the northern slope of the Montsant massif, within the Montsant Designation of Origin. Its vineyards sit at a considerable altitude on the limestone and granite massif of Montsant, a terrain distinct from the llicorella (slate) soils that characterize much of the neighboring Priorat.
The winery produces its wines under the Mas Franch name, with a red (Mas Franch Negre), a white (Mas Franch Blanc), and an Optim. The Mas Franch red is a blend of cabernet sauvignon, cariñena (mazuelo), garnacha tinta, merlot and syrah, aged around twelve months.
The winery's family history could not be independently confirmed, nor could visiting details or awards; its own website (naturmontsant.com) is no longer reachable.
