Priorat, Catalunya, Spain
Vibrant, pale ruby. Reserved nose, hint of typical warm stone aromas for Priorat, not a lot of fruit, more dried red fruits/fruit leather. On the palate first is the noticable acidity. It has a energy to the tannins that is lively. And the finish is slightly firm and drying, borderline bitter.
I like the amplitude in this wine, but wish it offered a bit more breadth/richness of fruit, especially given its 14.5% alc. May bloom w time in bottle, with air or show more fruit on a different day since this is a biodynamicaly farmed wine.

Very dry but not overly so. Good fruity notes with a full-bodied nature that’s very appealing.

OMG! This is good. I drink a lot of Priorat wines and this blew me away. Plum and red berries on the nose. Plum and slate on the palate held together by tannins that are like velvet. The flavors are heavily concentrated with perfect balance, perfect structure. I’m surprised the tannins are so smooth at this young age. Beautiful! Drinking well now but this will also age for 10 years or more. Priorat doesn’t get much better than this. 2015 vintage on Sept 12, 2018

Sep 16th, 2018Garnacha and Cariñena. The aging is partly in 3000 liters oak, partly in barriques, partly in amphorae. Ultra-biodynamics. Complexity! Cocoa, ripe raspberries with black pepper, strawberry jam, cranberries baked, blackberry sea, skin and meat tones, sage, menthol, earth, glowing stones, prunes, violets, roses. Excellent acidity, light sweetness, medium body, slightly sticking out alcohol, silk pleasant tannins. Very pleasant juicy jam-and-lace aftertaste. Outstanding wine.
