Mas Estela 'Gorgs' DO Emporda Cap de Creus Selva de Mar - Vall de Sant Romà 2018
95% Grenache and 5% Syrah aged in 300L barriques. The vineyards are within sight of the French border.
This has a classical balsamico nose, with pine resin, forest, and almondy bitter cherry aromas. The entry seems sweet but the oalate is hearty, firm and slightly unyielding; reminding me of Agiorgitiko/Aglianico with its firm edge.
