  • Dark fruit and bramble consistent with other notes below. This wine is ready to drink but shouldn't go anywhere in the next year or two. I brought it to a restaurant and the waiter murdered the cork coming out and had to filter into a decanter. Not sure if others have had trouble with the cork and can't speak for whether a durand or other tool would have made the job easier but something to be aware of...could also be this guy was lousy with a corkscrew!

  • Great Priorat! Bramble, prune, plum, graphite, black currant, tobacco leaf, espresso, medium to full body, great long dark mature fruit driven finish.

  • Bloody beautiful! Delightful perfume under a broad collection of dark berry fruits cherry, blackberry, blueberry. Slight smoke, alpine herbs. Smells like north of Italy, but has so much more depth. A big wine wrapped up in a delightful medium body wine with fresh floral aromatics lifting it up...

  • The nose is quite open with ripe dark berry fruit, tobacco, a little caramel, herbs and eventually a slightly dry fruit sense that you get with older wines although the wine is still quite youthful and primary. The palate is medium+ bodied with ripe dark cherry and plum, licorice and some slatey minerality with no hard edges. It doesn’t lack acidity either although it’s tamer than many Chilean Carignan based wines. Overall, it reminds me of a slightly more modern styled Super Tuscan or Right Bank Bordeaux wine than some of the more Garnacha dominated Priorat. This wine is 90% Carignan and 10% Garnacha. 80+ year old vines. 7,000 bottles made. This still can improve over the next few years, but an hour decant should do if you want to drink it now. 93+
