Getrunken über drei Tage. Am ersten Tag sehr verschlossen wenig Frucht, sehr mineralisch aber dann komplett zu. Zuviel Alkohol? Fehlton? Am zweiten Tag deutlich mehr Aromen bei anhaltender Mineralik, am dritten Tag ohne jeden Fehlton. Rund und harmonisch. Interessante Entwicklung gegenüber der letzten Flasche.

From 75cl, perfect cork. All good things must come to an end. My final bottle of this magnificent Priorat, finally starting to show its age: Dark golden colour, more oxidised than I remember previous bottles being, but still pure, bright, oily, sexy and rich. If you are fortunate enough to have this in your cellar, perhaps time to start drinking up. 90(-91)P

Popped and poured. Deep golden colour. On the nose; ripe yellow fruit, floral perfume, brown sugar and spices. On the palate; developed with fairly low acidity – kicks off decently, but fades quickly and ends up somewhat flat and alcoholic. Points awarded for a pleasant nose, but otherwise this isn't overly impressive. Probably better two years ago – drink up!

From 75cl, perfect cork. All good things come to an end, and I sense this is nearing the end of its peak drinking window. Just a little less vibrant than I remember previous bottles. 90-91P
