2011 vintage

At restaurant Sense

Village wine by Cims de Porrera. Blend of mostly Cariñena (78%) and some Garnatxa (22%), unusual proportion in Priorat, where Garnacha usually plays the main role. Sourced from multiple vineyards in Porrera owned by about 20 members of the local cooperative. Aged in oak for 14 months. Juicy red fruit (strawberry, cherry) and dark fruit (plums), minerals, some cocoa and balsamic notes. Medium to full-bodied, round, lush, smooth. Red fruit, minerals

First ever Priorat - don't have one to compare this to but overall a very good wine for a very cold night

Intense spice, blackberry, mulberry, black plum, leather, cedar , game , sweet smoke, violets.
Absolutely delicious, great length and intensity.

Pepper, black fruits, grilled almonds... nice balance and medium length albeit not particularly complex. Nice find nonetheless.

Very smooth and balanced. Tamed fruit and cool slate notes. Quite mineral. Lacks depth and complexity but friendlier than most priorats on this price range.

Present from Sergi. Quite strong.

Big. Hot. Balanced, though. A little burnt.
