Very nice with a sweet dark fruit taste. Neede little to no decanting and we enjoyed it with empanadas and some nice flatbread pizza. Definitely still drinking well. Will enjoy the remaining bottles soon though.

Blackish red, paling edge. Medium+ bq w stone dust, sweet dark fruit, liquorice, herbs. Full-bodied w high acidity, prominent, rounded tannins, dark fruit, sweet plums. Long aftertaste w hint of alcohol. What is missing -complexity. It is a very nice Priorat, good QPR, and at its peak now.

Way exceeding expectations. For whatever reason, I opened this with the expectation that it would be a fairly basic, intro, nothing special wine from a region I have always loved. But this was really excellent, and a reminder of why I love Priorat. It is typical enough of the region that my wife guessed it blind. Drinking very well now but I expect it to last at least another 5+ years. Very delicious, would buy again

Full bodied with black fruits and very solid structure that needed time to open up. But a bit more muted than last bottle in 2016. Let’s see what the next bottle brings.

Not much to add from our review of nov -20. Maybe the fruit is beginning to dry up a little. So -drink sooner rather than later.
