Tasting notes
Full ruby. Powerful blueberry, cherry, violet pastille and cola aromas are complemented by subtle mineral and allspice overtones. Concentrated and precise on the palate, offering bitter cherry and dark berry flavors that take on a spicy element with aeration. Shows fine clarity and solid thrust on a long, floral-inflected finish framed by slow-building tannins.

Starting with the 2015 Ferrer Bobet, this blend of 50% Carignan, 25% Grenache, 16% Syrah, and the balance Cabernet Sauvignon sports a deep purple color as well as Rhône-like bouquet of smoked black fruits, ground herbs, leather, dried earth, and licorice. It’s rich, with a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, good acidity, and light tannins, all making for a beautiful balanced, elegant, seamless wine to enjoy over the coming decade.
The eponymous red blend 2015 Ferrer-Bobet looks for elegance and freshness as a way to express the character of the terroir. It's a blend of 55% Cariñena, 25% Garnacha, 15% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon matured in French barriques for 12 months. The nose has tons of aromatic herbs, thyme and rosemary and even mint, coming through as aromatic and balsamic. It has a little more body than the 2016, but it's equally balanced, in a more powerful vintage. I like it as much as the 2016, even a tad more. 23,727 bottles and 500 magnums were filled in February 2017.
