  September 25, 2010 - Assorted Spanish Wines (SF Wine Trading Company): Moderately dark. Sweeter berry/licorice profile. Really very fragrant. For its weight, intense, spicy, penetrating black cherry flavors with vibrant supporting acidity. OK, maybe one could ask for more complexity, but this is really good for the low tariff.

  September 10, 2010 - 50% Garnacha; 30% Mazuela; Nice mix of tobacco, juicy fruit, good structure; earth, great balance, excellent drinker, esp. for the price.

  August 23, 2010 - Kind of boring. Not a ton going on. Good fruit. No complexity. Can't expect much more though at this price from Priorat.

  April 30, 2010 - I must agree with Parker's score on this excellent value from Priorat. At FIFTEEN DOLLARS this is really well structured, plush and just plain old yummy!
  Nice ripe well structured heady red fruit. Cherry and light pomegranite pie with some nice vanilla, mocha and some purple flower characteristics.
  Finish is round and has a really nice weight on the tongue. Excellent effort. I rarely like wines at this price point this much.
