Tasting Notes

93-95
Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Mar 17
(most of these vines are now over 115 years old; fermented in large concrete eggs and aged in a large older foudre) Lurid ruby. A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh dark berries, cola, incense and potpourri, and a hint of smoky minerality emerges with air. Juicy, penetrating black raspberry, bitter cherry and lavender pastille flavors show superb depth and energy and stretch out to become sweeter on the back half. Shows excellent clarity and spicy lift on a long, sappy finish framed by velvety, slow-building tannins. For such a generous wine, there's no lack of vivacity here.

Mainly old-vine, field-blend Grenache on sandy soils above Rayas. Blackish ruby. Light, direct nose with very meaty/savoury notes. Round and sweet and flattering with a dry finish and all the elements in place. A hint of portiness but it does have drive too – a good port! (JR)
