I didn't expect much from this wine going in, but I was pleasantly surprised. It held up well, past it's peak just barely. The nose had dark fruit, ripe plum and blackberry with just a hint of gameiness. On the palate there is an explosion of slightly overripe plum. While this was an enjoyable experience, if you have this wine in your cellar, go ahead and drink it.

Not something to use your smarty-pants wine connoiseur language to describe.
Swigged half a case over a few months. There's nothing particularly wrong or right about this. It's relatively generic, with some tannins, I guess, and lots of fruit. It's fine with pizza and the like.

Pleasant, fruity priorat with berry/cherry notes and a noticeable, but not heavy-handed, oak influence. Smooth, mild tannins. Medium-bodied. Drinking well now. Popped and poured.

Pleasant red fruit with a mediucm body. Fine, but somewhat generic.

red fruits on the nose. stewed red fruit and vegetal notes on the palate with decent tannic grip and a short finish.
