The 2009 Clos Abella from Marco Abella won Wine in China Magazine's 2014 blind tasting of more than 1,000 wines, which was chosen by a panel that included 7 Masters of Wine and Jancis Robinson.
50% Carignan, 39% Garnacha, and 11% Cabernet Sauvignon from Porrera in Priorat. Potently dark aromatics of creosote, espresso, charcoal, blackberry, licorice and schist. Everything translates through to the palate adding some secondary dark chocolate, raspberry, and baking spice, along with a floral overtone.

Rich, intensely concentrated dark fruit with perfectly balanced touches of vanilla and char that leave a chocolaty taste lingering in the background. A little tannin is present but doesn't last long. Gives the impression that it's about to start tasting of anise without ever actually doing so.
