  Appearance : clear, Deep ruby with legs and petillance.
  
  On nose : Pronounced intensity, dark fruit : plum, blackberry, dark cherry, with very obvious sweet vanilla oak, but not heavy. Pleasant and comfortable. For territory aroma : clove, tobacco, spiciness, toasty and a hint of leather, the aroma is complex. This wine is still developing.
  
  On palate : Dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ flavour intensity, high alcohol(14.5%, high but round and well integrated tannin which is soften by the French oak with some sweetness. (Usually, red Spain is America oaked but this place from Catalunya is an exceptional.) All aroma could be found on palate with some bitterness and medium+ finishing. Medium+ body which gave you rich but not heavy aftertaste.
  
  This is a great one mixing with 5 grapes varieties. You may found this is not fatty and bold, but you can feel the harmony inside just like a sonfonietta playing in a concert hall. I love it very much and it could be drunk now or you may wait for 5 more years to get more complexity.

  This is a very good wine indeed. Like a super tuscan it has fruit, Structure and tannins in balance. Still young but very approachable right now. 94 points.
