Dits del Terra Priorat Carignane
Priorat, Catalunya, Spain
It's held up well over the 7 years from vintage but feels a little soft, interesting violet candy aromas and very grapey and plumny fruit. Some dusty stone mineral notes appear in the nose but get lost on the palate. Must just be the warm year.

Came out reduced and required ample aeration to open up. Ripe brambly berries, baked plums, hot stones, crushed rock, singed cast iron, fresh tar, cured meat, dried flowers, cinnamon, star anise, sweet brett. Classy and suave, there’s considerable energy and elegance in its texture. Burgundian if you will. Just the right amount of “dirty” adding layers and depth to a beautiful wine.

3x 2015. This was the most powerful wine of all from 100% carignan.

Fresh and spicy. Surprisingly this was already on the downhill on day two dispite being full bodied, young and tannic on day one. Almost Pinot Noir type of character.
