Sweet and dark on the nose, with mint leaf and stalky accents. The palate is grabby and sweet, with size and cheek-grabbing tannins. Flavors of blackberry, plum and raspberry are somewhat candied, and the bulk and saturation level are up the ladder. Good modern wine but not a major leaguer, especially for the price.

Candied, raisiny aromas run a little lactic and milky, while the palate is sheer and grating, with overboard plum and berry fruit but little of Priorat’s patented mineral/schist character. Long and sweet on the finish; good in a vacuum but average to below average for the region.
