Pencil lead and iodine with chauky tannins and smooth finish. Thought it was Bordeaux blend.

I bought a case of this at HDH wine many years ago. I tried it a few times over the years and it was not ready (super mineral) and I have started opening these and I think they are ready. Not the most integrated wine, but delicious.

Amazing, definitely meets my very high expectations from Priorat. Expressive and spicy, great fruit-wood and tannin-acidity balances (all on high level). Peculiar blend with aromas of Syrah and grenage

Vibrant flavor as soon as it hit the palate...a very good wine that outperformed a much higher price selection that soon followed.
