Varietals:  45% Garnacha, 34% Carinena, 18% Syrah, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon

Appellation:  Priorat

Winemaker:  Merum Priorati

Winemaking Techniques:  12 months in New and Used French oak.

Cases Produced:  92

Tasting Notes:  Dark ruby-colored, it exhibits a fragrant nose of mineral, spice box, kirsch, raspberry, and spring flower garden. Structured on the palate with excellent depth and concentration, it has layers of spicy fruit and terrific integration of oak, tannin, and acid. The wine has a long, pure finish. Although it can be drunk now, this hedonistically styled wine should evolve for 3-5 years and drink well through 2022
