  The cork was dry and fragmented, but the wine was undamaged. Opened to breathe for 3-4h (slow ox). Perfumy nose of red cherries, cinnamon, and old paper from library books. Bright juicy red cherries on the palate, too, followed by heftier baking spices, mineral, oak, abundant black pepper, good acid for balance, and a long spicy finish. Good complexity, mature (by no means over the hill!), tonight paired with brisket. This must have been a huge wine when young, it is classy and civilized now. Pumped down overnight and enjoyed over 3 days.

  First Priorat of my life. Powerful wine, full of dark cherry and forest fruits on the palate. This reminded me a 2005 Clarendon Hills Brookman Syrah with a bit more old world and surely less "full" than the Australian wine on all aspects. Mature now but can't see why this should not have another 5 years left

  Still has enough fruit on the palate to be a good cross between old world and new world. Good QPR.

  Black cherry / plum. Leather and baking spices. Medium body but rounded without any shape edges though non bitter tannins at the end.
