Mas La Plana Penedès Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The Familia Torres are the largest owners of organic vineyards in all of Spain. I love when large producers make commitments like that. But I’ve long been a fan of Mas La Plana and this vintage is no exception.

Opened sometime prior to service. The 2018 pours a ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with beautiful notes of cassis, tobacco, capsicum, purple flowers, dry organic earth, and a mix of dry herbs and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tanning and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Just awesome stuff. These are long-loved wines. Drink now with patience through 2048.

@Peter van den Besselaar, I’ve had multiple vintages of this wine (1970, 1971, 1973, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1981 and 1982) — much to wife’s chagrin, I have not been able to locate what I believe to be 1 or 2 last bottles of this 1978 — I always LOVED the Torres Black Label, but never see them in the marketplace any longer, which is sad!! Bully for you having this gem!!

Salmos Priorat Cariñena Blend 2020

Torres family has been related to wine since 17th century when their ancestors first planted vines in the Penedès, a winegrowing region dating to the days of the Phoenicians. Deep Ruby with aromas of jammy fruit, pepper and toasty cedar. On the palate this blend of Cariñena, Garnacha and Syrah shows black currant, jammy blackberry and pepper, vivid acidity with fine grainy tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice, oak and earthy character. Nice. — 2 months ago
