"Made by Combier, Fischer, Gerin!"

A powerful combination for this Priorat pleasure! Produced by 3 talented French winemakers, Laurent Combier,Jean-Michel Gerin and Peter Fischer, this wine takes us to the heart of the Catalan hills. The first impression you get is the personality and depth of its aromatic where fresh red fruit dominates over spices and vanilla spices and vanilla, the result of well-integrated integrated aging. On the palate, it's smooth and silky with great character and a power that fills your mouth with its minerality and fruitiness. It has a finish reminiscent of blackcurrant liqueur and morello cherries. A Priorat for everyone, and will satisfy even the most experts.
