| Region | Spain: Priorat | |||
| Notes | "A blend of 65% Carinena, 22% Garnacha, and the balance Merlot and Syrah. Most of the vines are over 90 years of age and the wine spent 15 months in 75% new French and American oak. Purple black in color, it gives up a brooding bouquet of mineral, plum, lavender, and exotic spices. Made in a racy style, on the palate it reveals plenty of succulent black fruit, some elegance, and very good volume. This lengthy effort is an excellent value." (Wine Advocate) | |||
