Black inky vibes. A little too much lead in the pencil. It’s a slow sipper

Wine Spectator's Thomas Matthews is spot on with his "Sanguine and balsamic notes frame the plum, tobacco and cola flavors in this firm red." I would add decaying lavender and dried rosemary.

Clean, pure, balanced, but just a little too ripe and modern for my taste

Sublime combination of garnatxa, carignan with a small amount of cab. Fruity and fun with the expected potency of Priorat but without the massive punch. Love it!
