Celler Atavus
Naranjo 2022
One of the few orange wines in #priorat DOQ. It drinks best with a slight chill, interesting red/purple fruit aromas up front, slight funk and some citrus oil notes. Robust tannins up front on palate, richer body and citrus fruit with only slight acidity. The wine is a bit unbalanced and missing the really aromatic floral notes usually seen with an orange wine. Seems like an experimental curiosity but likely not the best skin contact white in Priorat. — 5 months ago

Priorat Tinto 2010
Exquisite #priorat - 2 days after uncorking and it’s showing gorgeously, fragrant blackberry, spiced plum, dusty fruit, that unmistakable damp slate aromas. Sound acidity up front on palate, stewed plum, vanilla, black tea, sweet tobacco and chewy tannins on a long finish - fantastic 14 year old wine. — 4 months ago

Iura Priorat Tinto 2010
This #priorat is peaking at 14 years of bottle age. Muted cassis, bramble fruit, some wet stone and earthy undertone aromas. Hint of caramel and dried fruit up front, plenty of acid structure, tannins completely integrated. — 6 months ago

Iura Priorat White Blend 2019
This more recent 2019 vintage shows much better than the 2013 I previously tried. Nose shows apricot, floral and some marzipan nutty notes. Drinks quite hot on palate as you notice that 14.5% ABV, missing some acidity but decent complexity on the finish. #priorat #garnachablanca — 6 months ago

Iura Priorat White Blend 2013
A little bit weird and funky on this white blend. Cork was wax-dipped so no oxidation, but at 10 years stored at the winemaker cellar it has aged to a dark caramel color. Same notes on the nose, nutty tones. Muted Sherry notes on palate. It’s interesting to me but repulsed other tasters in our group. #priorat — 7 months ago

Deep and brooding. My partner says there’s a pinch of savory notes, doesn’t bother me. Good #priorat — 8 days ago
