Härligt mogen doft men som fortfarande har liv i sig. Körsbär, viol och den speciella mineraliteten som kännetecknar priorat. Smaken går i samma aromer som röda bär, syrliga körsbär, ek, läder, och en fin örtighet. Smaken ligger kvar länge. Tycker vinet håller upp bra trots ett antal år på nacken. Dagen efter har det kommit mer mogna toner i doften men smaken håller fortfarande upp.

Clear dark ruby. Nose initially a little reticent but opens with air to reveal watermelon and notes of slate. The palate is dominated by firm tannins, surprising given the age of the wine but then again the grapes come from very old vines. Acidity is medium, some fruit eventually comes out with air, and alcohol is also medium (given the 15.5% ABV, that’s a nice surprise!). Finish is long. This would stand up nicely to a rich fatty meal.

Excellent vino, drank in January of this year with friends. I think it was peaking after a shorter decant with a lot of sediment. However this excellent Spanish wine was shared with rich dinner. Went well with short ribs and some tasty sides.. CC unique intro to this one and hard to find

Spectacular, clear, clean nose of dark berry, integrated tannin that is subtle but there, med + acidity. Balanced and still developing but very drinkable now.
Yum

WCC Priorat Blind Tasting (Salty's Pub & Bistro, Clifton Park, NY): Tart simple, but with a long, yummy finish. Young but drinkable.
