Arbossar 2013 1500ml

Dark purple with clear violet reflections.

Pure dark fruit and earthy notes from the 2013 Arbossar and plenty of minerality from the black Licorella slate mingle with licorice notes. Blackberry, elderberry, sloe, rowan interwoven with rosemary, juniper and black olives. Wild sage leaves rubbed in the hand and a little violet pastille add a delicate ethereal touch. Although still so young already incredibly open, multi-faceted, powerful and elegant at the same time. A work of art from 100% Cariñena filled into the bottle.

On the tongue, the 2013 Arbossar unfolds powerfully with lots of fruit and herbal spice. The tannins are still youthful but super fine-grained, it creates the impression of the black slate immediately lay on our tongue paired with salty minerality. One is immediately transported into the rough, rugged and at the same time impressively beautiful landscape of the Priorat. Despite its power it shows itself light-footed with a refreshing structure and for the region moderate alcohol of only 13,5 Vol%. One would like to drink it just like that, it is so animating even in its youth, but would deprive oneself of the experience of experiencing this wine in its perfection with a little maturity. Therefore, it is best to store a few cases and taste again and again over the next few years, he brings the storage potential playfully.

If you want to enjoy it now, you should decant it and serve it in a big glass.
