Saturday, September 5, 2015 - Classic old vine Priorat. Lifted and focused aromatic of black cherry fruit with loads of black mineral, slate, and a toasted herb note. Palate brings medium weight pure black cherry and blackberry fruit with a prominent herb, mineral undertone. Good energy and acidity with suave, fine, soft tannin. Delivers terroir -- as you can taste and feel the old vine and rocky soil in this wine. Fully mature, holding up well, but likely on the back of it's plateau. I would drink up. Lovely stuff with moderate complexity. My only question is I wonder if it's any better or complex now than 10 years ago ... I don't think so.
