Monthly tasting club "The Tasting Club": Priorat (@ My place): Red and dark berries as well as sweet spices in the bouquet. On the palate juicy dark berries, some graphite, pleasant oak, good and fresh acidity and a bit grainy tannin which is a bit drying.

Wanted to love this ... thin, funk that needs to blow off, sour cherry and bitterness, short finish, disappointing. Sorry, love the bigger red blends from the region with big fruit and minerality and this is not that. Will try again tomorrow. DAY TWO -- much better. Violets and sour cherry/blackberries, minerals from the slate, fuller mouthfeel and finish. A lighter Priorat than others but decent. Upping rating from 86 to 89.

Rustic, in a good way. In a great spot, I don't think it will improve so drink up.
