Tasting Notes
Produced by a time-honoured and internationally respected winemaker, Sarah Perez, this wine is an exquisite piece of art. It comes from Priorat, a breathtaking mountaintop region outside of Barcelona and since its “rediscovery” in the 1980s, it has joined Rioja at the top rank of Spanish wine regions.
This wine has a profound perfume of exotic Asian spices, incense and dark black and blue fruit. This wine is densely layer, succulent and beautifully aged. The powerful fruit is now beautifully dried and mature and is intermingled with an enthralling singed earth quality. This wine can certainly age effortlessly for another 5 years but why wait! This is the most elegant and perfumed of the bunch. We paired this with lamb shanks over thanksgiving and it wowed some very discerning palates at the table.
