Oriol Artigas Alella Beier

Light garnet and honey colored. Soft Grenache-styled expression. Almost some frizzant and it’s gotta be 4-5 years from vintage. Day 4/5 - earthy and still fresh. A silage note, but the delicious kind. Raspberry fruit. Like a Cote Rotie closeout from Waterford years ago (1998 Bonserine Cote Brune). XXX

AhHh, drinkable. From the git go. Fresh cherry, red mtn berry. Against Lapierre Morgon I’d love to see the contrast.

red fruited aromas. Light body, soft and easy palate. Sneaky structural streak. Very crushable.
