Celler Cecilio

Black Slate Porrera Vi de la Vila Priorat Garnacha Blend 2013

I love this wine. Every year. Spicy dark fruits, tiny amount of bitter mocha, tobacco-ish hints, lots of texture but not too much earth (not for me anyway). Surprised me at how young it still tastes. If you get one get a second to lie down a few years. Goes with most food and any person who drinks dry reds should fall in love. Old and new world fans alike will. #crowdpleaser #priorat #livesuptohype — 8 years ago

Recommended: open, drink small glass, put cork back in, forget about it for two days. Or age it another 5-10 years, if you have that level of super human patience. I don't. #livesuptohype #bandol #decantthis #cellar #mourvèdre at it's finest. — 9 years ago
