Based largely on Carignan, with 30% Garnacha and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Priorat has a big, smoky nose of mulled red and black fruits, graphite, flowers, and new leather. This carries to a medium to full-bodied wine with terrific tannins (especially for Carignan), a balanced, elegant texture, no hard edges, and a great finish.
What We Thought: A robust blackberry nose leads to an inky dark, full-bodied palate of smooth, very ripe, brambly black raspberry and plum fruit accented by complex notes of cinnamon, black pepper, and licorice, finishing with supple, well-integrated tannins.
