2001 Viñedos de Ithaca 'Odysseus' #Priorat Tinto, #Catalunya, #Spain. Blend of Garnacha, Cariñena & Cabernet. Notes of dried red cherry and blackberry liqueur intertwined with sandalwood, dried herbs and a whiff of leather. Sadly this bottle was a bit #corked but I'm muddling through! #wine #sommelier

Structure, very much alive, fresh black fruit, perfumed. Dear God. This will go for another 20 no problem.

Stewed red fruit, lovely tannins, this is a new favorite.

Obsessed with this one. Fabulous terroir, dry tobacco notes. A pretty steep purchase, but worthwhile.

Aromas of blackcurrant jam, chocolate and soft floral tones. Notes of dried red cherry and blackberry mixed with cardamom and a hint of leather. Tannins more subtle. Smooth and silky on the palate. A nice mineral finish...

Typical dark fruit stone/schist unusually dark & only for being so old, not much tannic grip and finish wasn't as smooth as I hoped
