International Wine Cellar Author: Josh Raynolds Issue: Issue 134

($35) Dark red. Precise cherry and blackcurrant aromas are complicated by cocoa, anise and dried flowers. Supple, chewy dark fruit flavors are gently supported by dusty tannins, with good acid lift on the back. Finishes with excellent juicy persistence and a jolt of bitter cherry.

The 2005 Les Terrasses is sourced from a biodynamically farmed vineyard. This purple-hued wine offers an already complex bouquet of mineral, pencil lead, scorched earth, leather, and black cherry. This is followed by a full-flavored wine with layers of ripe fruit, silky tannins, and a smooth palate-feel. Although it can be enjoyed now, it has enough stuffing to evolve for several years and drink well through 2017. It is also a great value in Priorat, a rarity these days.

This plush red spills over with sweet cherry and berry flavors, accented by licorice, mountain herb and coffee. The tannins are firm, but the texture is fresh and lively. Drink now through 2014. 3,000 cases imported.

Very robust, needs to be opened ahead of time and also needs more time in bottle

Excellent wine. Pretty black cherry and berry fruit, floral notes, med body, complexity from waves of other flavors. Bright acidity, good tannic levels, super long finish. Very elegant.
