Cooked red plum, blackberry, hints of plum. Smokey, sweet wood, lavender, dirt. Lots of oak present. Really pretty but hides the terroir quite a bit. Drinking really well though very elegant texture.

I would have liked it more if the oak hadn't been so dominant

Dark Grenache fruit, pure priorat power, great balance of acidity, a bit too much vanilla oak, but youthful and vibrant, delicious wine--glad I carried this back from Spain 8 years ago

Spanish love courtesy of @scholiumwines. Ball jars and pitchers make excellent decanters.
