Clear, med intense cherry red colour with pink rim and thousands of slow-moving mini-tears. Clean, med+ intensity with aromas of salmon berries, ripe plums, red cherries, strawberries, aniseed, slight leather and jus de boeuf. Dry, med body, med-tannins, med-acidity, med alcohol, with further flavours of mulberries, ripe pomegranate, hint of perfume, candied red apples, and softened tea leaves. It opened nicely over an hour with a decent finish and lively after-taste. A very feminine Priorat and well worth a purchase.
