Bodegas Mas Alta
Artigas Priorat Red Blend
2011. Complex nose. Deeply pitched ripe dark berry fruit, wood smoke and piercing rock dust notes. Sledgehammer powerful in the mouth. Almost overwhelming rich dry extract coats the mouth. Huge body. Finish is very long with pure dark berry notes and dark minerals competing to see who quits first. Great wine. But you have to pick your moments for this one.

Jul 29th, 2015Instant gratification. A powerhouse of a wine, just plummy and cocoa-ey enough, without being blowsy and overextracted.

Dec 25th, 2014Amazing! Very complex. Different smell and taste w each sip. Only wanted to keep smelling it b/c if I drank it, then it'd be gone!
