The dream team Daphne Glorian and Nin Ortiz was especially honoured this year: Parker's Wine Advocate rated two wines from the Winery Clos I Terrasses incredibly high.
|
|
The lighthouse «Clos Erasmus» received the full score of 100while the second wine «Laurel» with 96 points has been taken into account. Especially with the "second wine" there is a lot of Priorat for the money.

You can think what you like about Parker points. But the Full score out of 100 is extremely rare and is awarded annually to only a handful of the world's most exceptional wines.
|
|
The last Priorat wine to score a hundred points was the 2019 L'Ermita from Álvaro Palacios. The latter costs almost five times as much as Daphne's «Clos Erasmus».

Let us now Luis Gutiérrez from Parker's Wine Advocate about the wines:
|
[...] This wine is really beautiful. It is a very special vintage of Erasmus that, with time in the glass, unfolds incredible complexity and enticing aromas - blood orange (what freshness!), curry and cassis. It has great purity, complexity, elegance and finesse.... A very different Clos Erasmus. Bravo! [...]
|
|
[...] Even though this is the second wine, it is a wine that needs a little time and will improve in bottle. That said, the 2020 is more open, expressive and approachable than the 2019, which is more tannic and powerful, while the 2020 is a little more Burgundian, if you will. This has to be one of the best vintages of Laurel yet. [...]
