Reviews

"Full medium ruby. Explosive aromas of black raspberry, bitter chocolate, mocha, violet and spice cake. Thick, dense and suave, with vibrant flavors of licorice and violet. Already showing lively inner-mouth aromatics. Finishes very long, with thoroughly lush tannins. Should be an outstanding vintage for this wine."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
A rugged Catalan region whose steep llicorella slate slopes produce dense, mineral Garnacha and Carinena. Low yields and old vines give wines of great intensity and concentration.
One of only two wines with Spain's top DOQ status, yielding dense, mineral Garnacha and Carinena from steep slate slopes.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
