Winery dates back to the 12th century, Scala Dei (Latin for "Ladder of God"). Since 2000, Grupo Codorniu has assumed management of Winery. Tried older vintages which to me were mediocre, the ‘11 is a step up! Aromas of rich berry fruit with a mineral character. On the palate ripe black cherry and currant flavors with black pepper notes. Fine tannins, good balance, lingering ending with fresh fruit with slight earthy tones. Nice value!

Currant, spicy hints, tannin aware wine, and remnants of this light cherry cough syrup flavour.

Imported by Aveniu brands. Juicy, spicy, a little hot, pretty enjoyable. 100% "Garnatxa," 14.5% ABV.
