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

Beautiful, 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".
