MONTSANT

Montsant is a Spanish Denominación de Origen (DO) (Denominació d'Origen in Catalan) for wine located in the province of Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain) and covers 12 municipalities. It was previously known as the Falset subzone of Tarragona (DO), and was created as a separate DO in the early 2000s. Regional approval came in 2001, and from 2002 wines were sold as Montsant rather than Tarragona. Montsant takes its name from the Montsant mountain in the area. There are currently about 2,050 hectares (5,100 acres) of Montsant vineyards, with an increasing trend.
