Zerran |
Even more so is the 2011 Zerran, which ratchets up the level of concentration and ripe fruit. It reveals abundant kirsch, lavender, black raspberry and dusty, loamy, earthy scents intermixed with notions of spring flowers and blackberries. There is not any oak evident in this dense effort. Its completeness and overall equilibrium are impressive, and this great value should drink well for 5-6 years, possibly longer. |

Bellmunt |
The wine is medium intensity showing lots of spices such as licorice. It also has a leathery sensation with a dominant oak charge. The alcohol sensation is high. It has lots of flavors reflecting cooked berries. A warm, broad and ample Priorat. |

Bellmunt Blanc |
The nose is complex and has well-ripened white and stone fruit, peach, apricot and citrus aromas. A bit yeasty and floral. It is pure and clean with a very pleasant texture. Very well made with an elegant bitter touch on the finish. |

Opulent and generous dark berries accompanied by an elegant and creamy oak sensation. Quite intense and spicy with great juiciness and superbly integrated firm tannins. Textbook Priorat with a remarkable freshness. What outstanding textured tannins! |

Durmiente Rufete Blanco |
The white 2014 Phinca Durmiente Rufete Blanco is truly spectacular and has a marked personality that differentiates it from the majority of whites from the region. It has low alcohol (12.5%) and very good freshness, and it's still young despite its age. But what's interesting is how it delivers an electricity that seems to come from the granite and slate soils where the vines are planted. The grapes are foot-crushed and fermented with native yeasts, and the wine matured in 500-liter French oak barrels that are rolled for the first six months. The élevage lasts for two years. 1,000 bottles were filled in August 2017. This is outstanding. |

Pinot Noir Double L Vineyard |
The Pinot Noir Double L exhibits a rich cherry nose and hints of vanilla oak. It is soft and round in the mouth with excellent purity of flavor and depth. It exhibits more precision, and refinement than the 12 Clones and has a lovely persistent finish. |

Twelve Clones Pinot Noir |
Aromas of strawberries, tar and light earth follow through to a medium body with fine and light tannins. A floral, watermelon and citrus aftertaste. A pleasing purity of fruit to this. Drink now. |
