Bursting with ripe fruit, dusty thyme, sage, and old leather. A floral note on the finish---violets?

Couldn't take B to Priorat, but I could bring Priorat to B. Next time, Love.

Medium to full-bodied and complexly layered with strawberry, red currant, cherry fruits up front and a backbone of flowers, mineral, oak, and chocolate. Long finish.

Garnacha 70%, Carignan 25% Cabernet Sauv. Garnacha comes from two different soils: 60% llicorella and 40% clays.

Velvety with prickly blackberries, stewed plums, licorice, billows of cigar smoke and ash and chewy cedar. Leather, shoe polish, cured meat, and tar on the nose. Layers for days. Probably could still go for a few more years.
