A Burgundy drinker's Garnatxa... fragrant, feminine fruit with intense, spicy mineral tension. Focused and light on its feet, this will flesh out nicely over the next several years

Jul 11th, 2018Beautiful, balanced, vibrant and delicious. Classic Priorat, if lacking the floral perfume potential of the varietal

Incredible wine. Top five favorite. Single estate at 500m in the shadow of the Montsant Mountain Range featuring 100% old vine Garnatxa handpicked and hand selected. If you can find it, you won't be disappointed. Hints of tobacco, balanced leather with powerful fruit and tasty spices. This is wine's version of "Reservoir Dogs".

Leada with Raspberry and garrigue, also light tar notes. It has a character in the mouth that to me is like a crass between a burgundy and a langhe nebbiolo- very dry fruit, light on the tongue and a good dose of very fine tannins.
Opened at a delightful lunch of ribs by Tony Allen in Rochester
