Priorat, Catalunya, Spain
This #priorat is peaking at 14 years of bottle age. Muted cassis, bramble fruit, some wet stone and earthy undertone aromas. Hint of caramel and dried fruit up front, plenty of acid structure, tannins completely integrated.

Aug 5th, 2024Tasting notes first from 2018 vintage served at an Indian restaurant - it was likely improperly stored so was clearly tired after a day or 2. We were fortunate enough to visit the #priorat winery and there the 2018 and 2019 were both lovely. 2019 was more classic, earthy cassis, bramble fruit nose leading into finely balanced black/purple fruit, leather-earth, tartness and superfine tannins on the finish.

A nice surprise. Tannic and high alcohol. Not too fruity and textured. Long pleasant finish.
