Krotida Wine Trip to Priorat & Barcelona; 9/29/2019-10/2/2019: The wine is a blend of Garnatxa and Carignan from 100yo vines, 14 months in oak The wine shows very dense colour. The wine shows the same profile in both nose and palate, impressive depth, ripe and dried black fruit, leather, gamey, ripe and juicy tannins, nice balancing acidity, long finish Outstanding quality

Herbal nose, something green, the palate is dense, liquorice, dry raising and smoke, in Priorat context this can be considered a bit light, not as monolithic as many other wines in the Priorat vertical, one of my favourites in the line-up.

Very nice nose of fresh iodine, ripe strawberries... very sappy wine, loads of super silky ripe tannins, fraise des bois, framboises, sweet aftertaste, very well made!

Priorat, Montsant and Rioja; 9/5/2014-9/18/2014: 50/50 Grenache/Carignan from 100 year-old vines. Darkest red. Black cherry/ blackcurrant aroma with a whiff of expensive oak. Very sweet and full-bodied, the texture reminds me of a superb Australian Shiraz. Remarkably linear from entry to finish: Smooth, sweet, full-bodied, strong and ripe, with intense, fresh, counterbalancing acidity. The texture develops in the mouth from initial rich velvet to smoothest silky ripe tannins at the close. Still too sweet for my palate, this will surely improve for 5-10 years and keep for decades. 50 EUR at cellar door. 92P
