Sindicat La Figuera is a small co-operative in the Montsant mountains, founded in 1932. At the time, La Figuera was a bustling town with 25 residents involved in the creation of the winemaking facility and who contributed grapes to the first vintage. In the mid-1950s, however, a great storm devastated the area, followed the next year by a damaging frost; many fled, and most of the vineyards were either destroyed or abandoned. With the surge in interest in Montsant in recent years the Sindicate has returned to play a strong supporting role in the region, working with a little more than 60 acres of vines ranging in age from thirty to eighty years. Their Montsant, which is 100% Garnacha, is light and fresh, with hints of citrus and flowers, a clear reflection of the altitude of the vineyards and their traditional winemaking practices, including their use of underground concrete tanks.
