70 CA 30 GR old vine bottling that proves how important Carignan can be in arid, warm climate winemaking. At 15% abv this wine carries balance, life, and most importantly complex interplay of deeply hued fruit and savory layers. There’s an air of roasted meatiness, leather, wet slate, and roasted black and purple fruits that stands out. In the background purple flowers, smoke, talcum, licorice, brown sugar. Palate is expansive, rich without being too heavy, kept in check by balancing acid of the carignan. Tannin wise there’s grit, nothing overpowering but flowing nicely about, keeping the texture present with its length.

A fruit-forward blend of Carignan and Grenache, with racy acidity and savory dark berry fruit. Pairs well with roasted birds, pork and chorizo and clams.

Really enjoyable. And a reasonably priced Priorat. Which I was beginning to think did not go together.
