Tasting Note
All the essence of Priorat is resumed inside this bottle: Centenary vineyards of Carignan grapes, planted on high slopes, extract and show the purity and strength of Priorat terroir, a wine that emerge of the Priorat stones.
Intense on the nose, with reminiscences of graphite, wet earth, black berries jam, eucalyptus and mineral notes. Powerful, with a great quality tannins, sweetness and velvety, excellent acidity and very long aftertaste.
