An unforgettable meal... Windowside, watching the Bellagio fountains, a private 5 course tasting, and then a chat with Julian himself. This bottle was sent from a thoughtful friend. Happy birthday, Matthew!

Such purity of flavors flowers and red fruit with a certain pepperiness - should age beautifully - a very low production vintage

Kind of weird right now. Not so expressive, more oak/lactic character. I'd sit on this for a bit longer

Another Priorat @ £45 that @ 14.5% ABV was a lot lighter than I expected - will benefit from a little more age 👍
🍇 60% Granache w/ 40% blend of Cab S, Syrah and Mer
🍷 Opaque ruby purple
👃 Light oaked earthy blackberry w/ dark cherry, red berry, vanilla & smokey cocoa whiff, wet clay & hints of leaves
👄 Med dry body of blackberry, raspberry & red cherry w/ touches of cocoa, liquorish & green stalks in med acidity
🎯 Med mocha blackberry & red berry touch dry fin

My favorite priorat as of yet, mostly garnacha, secondary, cariñena, third cab. Gorgeous fruit followed by spice.
