Sipping Fine Wine

Had this a few yrs ago, aged well. Mather Teresina, flagship wine of Celler Vinos Piñol, grapes grown in high elevation region of Terra Alta. Nearly extinct Morenillo grape is indigenous to the area & makes Mather Teresina a unique wine, a blend of 50% Garnacha, 30% Cariñena & 20% Morenillo. Nice aromas of berries & sweet spice. On the palate cherry flavors with vanilla spice adding black pepper notes on smooth fine tannins. Long finish ending with sweet fruit tones & earthy character. Nice!

Well made, but a little big and chewy do my tastes...

Expensive and disappointing. Very acidic and alcoholic. These flavors overwhelm any other flavor in the wine. Maybe in 10 years but now it’s not worth drinking.

Firm chewy tannins but nice balance with some spice and mineral. Could see this evolving in a good direction but approachable now with food.
