Very nice juice, not as pungent and deep as I remember it being a few years ago, but still an outstanding wine in my opinion. Drink up.

Great nose, minerals, red fruits, spicy and cedary, still going strong but I think fully mature now and seems not quite as powerful as it did a few years ago. Drink now and over the next year or two.

Brought and dranked at dinner with Thomas & Mia. Fully mature, mellow and soft tannins with nice minerality. Red berries, liqorice, rusty iron (!). Become a lot better with some time in the glass.

Fully mature, showing saturated black fruit and a lack of acidity. Still alive, but on the decline based on the last bottle I had a few years ago, drink up

Consistently great wine. Drinking beautifully and should continue to for some years.

Stunning juice. Should be classified as a second growth of Priorat.

Just not much going on. Maybe a bad bottle.

Aromatically challenged but very open on the palate. Plum, currant, red fruit, berries. A little unexciting. Primarily Grenache.

Low altitude Priorat here. Initially very spicy with mocha nuances. Dusty Tannins. Youthful purple color but clear at the rim. Seems at or near peak as it turned simple with air. Not terribly powerful.

Deep pomegranate red. Great scents of sweet red fruits. Rustic tannins gave way to a lovely full bodied wine with lingering aftertaste. Great with Latin food.

From the moment of decanting this oozed flavor. Long finish, with, as noted, cedar and tobacco. Very good!

Wow. Amazingly deep color and beautifully integrated wine. It reminds me of a great bordeaux from the 2000 vintage. It's a beauty.
