About Wine from Montsant
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
Inky ruby. Primary cherry skin and blackberry aromas start off reduced but slowly open to reveal baking spices and dusty minerals. Spicy dark berry flavors stain the palate and are firmed by chewy tannins, which gain power with air. Tannins grip the finish, which leaves dark fruit and licorice flavors behind. In a more brooding style than the '05, and I don't think that this is just a function of its youth.
Expert Ratings Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 92 points
