This is just so delicious... Tinges of gold. Distinctive nose: toasted salted almonds and hazelnuts. Also a fragrance of coconut and oven-fresh brioche. Yeasty. Tasty. An attractive bitterness see-sawing playfully against the sweetness. Rounded, voluptuous, generous. Immensely enveloping. Caressing. A wonder. And outstanding value to boot.

Golden bronzed yellow buttery colour. Creamy and lactic. But a distinct note of lime behind it. Viscous and thick, but racy and energetic. Almonds, hazelnuts, pine nuts. Lots of nuts. Herbs like rosemary and oregano. Gorgeously rich and giving. All the things: generous and lush, expansive and eloquent. And delicious!

gold with copper highlights. Surrounding Priorot, the higher altitude Montsant DO was created in 2001, its name taken from the Montsant massif ('holy mountain') that dominates the region's landscape. Here, Romans first planted. The soil is a local specialty known as 'llicorella', which is high in granite and slate components. Blend of Macabeo (or Viura in Rioja), Garnacha Blanca, and Cartoixà (Xarel-lo). Perfect Yummy balance of musky, floral, and herbal notes. Waterfall acidity. 30+ second finish. Reminds me of a rubber shoe sole in the best way. Excellent w/food. Chaîne explorable. I anticipate it can age 5+ years
