March 31, 2012 - 80 percent Garnacha with 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Syrah, and 6% Merlot. Sounds good on the label but is it? Yes, terrific and delicious! Better than a recent Trader Joe's special on a burnt out Priorat, and nearly the equal of many Priorats made for early consumption. Unless you are going for $30 plus priorat, try this first. Beautifully expressed but still youthful garnacha rasp/kirsch/black pepper fruit, ample palate thickened by the generous blend. Fruit to the fore, little mineral or garrigue herbals. Drinks perfectly now.

January 3, 2011 - strawberry, cherry, light spice, moderate tannins. Good acidity and the 14.5 ABV is integrated well, but the tannins are a little awkward and the flavors a bit muddled. Acceptable because of the price.
