Big, Dense, Juicy, I enjoyed this wine very much. I think that it is much better than other Priorats I have had, and it's a fraction of the price

Vibrant purple. Paired with smoked brisket, so a bit difficult to parse the aromas of this wine. Brambly, black raspberry with a hint of mineral stoniness. I wish this showed more soil notes but distinctly tasty now for its youthful fruit.

Wet rock, white pepper, nice fruit. Just a little bit of heat. Great value.

Ok. Would not buy again. The Porrera Black Slate was much better.
