This was the first wine that we brought of the night. H Keplinger killed it with this vintage. What an unbelievable elegant expression of Garnacha from Priorat. Despite the fact that it is 15.5% alcohol, it is completely masked. Soft tannins, velvety texture that feels like silk on the palate. Bravo!

BIG BOY... Even with the 06 vintage, this wine was still packing heat. Warm nose, jammy fruit, oak spice and gripping tannin. Bit over the top for me, but I'm sure would please some. Alcohol a bit high @ 15.5.

Well-made for its style. Lots of lush oak, but well integrated and of high quality. Wine was balanced and had an admirable grace. New world style, old world locale.

Pretty fuckin concentrated. Ripe blackberry and wood spice. Pretty nose. Dense with a syrupy purple candy effect. A bit smokey. Fruity.

Smooth, oaky, but sassy, heat like Cabernet.
