    February 18, 2024 - Dark berries like blackberries and some lactic impressions in the bouquet. On the palate juicy and still primary, clean and pure with good acidity and a touch of sweetness and round tannin.

    November 15, 2023 - Coupage de Cariñena, Garnacha y Syrah con una crianza de 14 meses en barrica de roble francés, un 25% nuevas. Alc. 14% vol. En copa es un vino expresivo, con madera bien marcada, muchos matices tostados, pero a la vez una inconfundible fruta negra muy madura. En boca tiene paso redondo y jugoso, peso medio+ con un final largo y armonioso. Está muy bueno ahora y tiene estructura para recorrido.

    August 17, 2023 - Nez : cerise noir et baies rouges confits, épices, cèdre, cuir et vernis, ainsi que des notes de garrigue...très beau ! Un vin fruité, rond, texturé...saveurs fruits confits et d'épices/bois. Finale moyenne à longue sur des notes de fruits mûrs, de poivre et de chocolat noir. 91++

    March 8, 2023 - M+ body, M acidity. Well integrated/smooth tanins which let you focus on a smack of plum and oak/chocolate.

    December 22, 2022 - Sumptuous Priorat wine that is at its optimum drinking window now. A blend of 50 % Garnatxa Negra, 45 % Carinyena and 5 % Syrah, sourced from the llicorella soils (slate soils) in the villages of Porrera and El Lloar (Province of Tarragona / Catalunya). Aged for fourteen months in French barriques (of which 25 percent were new). Concentrated dark red in color (almost opaque) with purplish hues. Expressive nose revealing scents of dried red fruit, cassis, licorice, Mediterranean herbs and a hint of forest floor. The ample, full-bodied palate is characterized by luscious black cherry and plum fruit, an outstanding balance and depth, really silky tannins and an excellent acid structure. Complex, long lingering aftertaste. Drink this beauty now and over the next two-four years.

    Weelderige Priorat-wijn die nu perfect op dronk is. Een blend van 50 % Garnatxa Negra, 45 % Carinyena en 5 % Syrah, geteeld op de llicorella-gronden (leisteenbodems) in de gemeenten Porrera en El Lloar (provincie Tarragona / Catalonië). Hij rijpte veertien maanden in Franse barriques (waarvan 25 percent nieuw). Geconcentreerd donkerrood van kleur (bijna ondoorzichtig) met paarse schakeringen. Expressief bouquet met aroma’s van gedroogd rood fruit, cassis, zoethout, mediterrane kruiden en een spoor van bosgrond. Het somptueuze, volle smaakpatroon wordt gekenmerkt door heerlijk zwarte kers- en pruimenfruit, een uitstekende balans en diepgang, fijne zijdezachte tannines en een uitstekende aciditeitsstructuur. Complexe, persistente afdronk. Een prachtige wijn, te drinken nu en in de komende twee tot vier jaar.
