Camins del Priorat Grenache Blend 2023

9.0

A charming wine from a very good producer. Blend of Carignan, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. Concentrated and bitterly herbaceous upon opening. Thyme and sage, cherries, hibiscus, licorice, and orange peel. Whew, a mouthful!
Update: 4 hours later this wine is calm and harmonious.

I’m a Priorat fan, but haven’t had this one yet.

Me too, and me either until now. Palacios makes a Mencia called "Petalos" that I enjoy whenever I can. @Tom Casagrande

A lot going on here, and it's good. Smells like cola and chocolate. Tastes like milk chocolate, plums, medjool dates, brown sugar? Dry, tannic, puckery finish, but with lower acidity. Delicious, and a meal into itself.

Last summer, I drank the 2021 vintage of this wine @restaurantcasaruben in Spain. I also gave it 94 points at the time. This Mencia is absolutely my cup of tea!

That sounds like a wonderful experience! @Ronald Heijden

Very nice white. Always enjoy it and decided to buy a few to have on hand. Crisp and delicious with real salinity and depth. Bit of confectionary quality. — a month ago
