Paired with an honest BBQ w Kansas City style ribs & old college friends. Have had this over the years & while it’s a high ABV wine it carries itself more like a compact Bordeaux. Not oak monster rich, in balance.

Just harsh tannins and unpleasant flavors. Perhaps way too young to open.

Oodles of earth, particularly that smoky-metallic flavor characteristic of the Priorat geology, pencil lead, coca, and red and black fruit. Tannic, intense flavors in the mouth with a moderate finish.

Another wine from Priorat, another very good choice. Still young and rich. A black fruit, sweet vanilla and tobacco with fantastic acidity.
