Dec 6th, 2018Unctuous, jammy, but a Med acid backbone to keep you engaged. Cedar and spice box notes, along with cardamom and all spice. Chewy tannins are in balance. A joy to drink with the winter chill

Nov 7th, 2017Super dense and port-like. Very fruity, but dark and delicious. This wine would continue to age beautifully. Drinks like velvet, Cindy says.

Feb 12th, 2014Incredibly fresh tasting for a wine of this age. Interesting Priorat blend of Carinena (Carignan-70%), Merlot (15%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (15%). Complex aromas of fresh herbs, forest floor, wet slate and ripe black fruits. Plum and prune flavors lead the palate with hints of blackberry and dark chocolate. Chewy tannins, harmonious and nicely balanced. Savory, plush and tasting way younger than its age. Brilliant! Thanking Kevin Z. for sharing this bottle.

Nov 18th, 2017Already seems a bit tired...
Cinnamon, orange peel, sundried tomatoes, chocolate and kirsch. Still alive, still a big wine (15.5%), cruising through midlife, but way more impressive and interesting as a youngster.
