Still has all its fruit and vibrancy, but the tannins have mellowed out quite a bit. Smoked plums, wild herbs, Moroccan spice. Beautiful

I don't always indulge in a bottle of Spanish red but when I do it's always from Catalunya. Rene Barbier and Sara Perez project - terroir driving, glorious secondary characteristics. My current obsession on the list. @Casa Mono

A "baby Priorat" made by Sara Pérez & René Barbier. As if blueberries were grown in my attic. Still a really good wine.
