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!

Excellent blend of garanacha, carignane & Cab Sauv. Had it with a spicy Indian vegetarian meal. Fabulous! For $29 @ Wholefoods

Dark fruits, chocolate, spice. Maybe lacking a little acidity and length but still really enjoyable.

Bitta old world funk. Literally smells like wine once you've spilt it on cordorie couch cushions. Sounds unusual, but it's half fruit, half mustiness. Drinks so clean however. Not enough interest for higher points
