At present this is a blend of Carinyena, Garnatxa and Syrah grown in the olive country of Les Garrigues, producing tiny yields from deep, silty-clay soils. It’s dark black-red in colour, with less mentholated aromas than those of Gonfaus but there is nonetheless a resinous, almost Napa-like quality to the lush, deep black fruits. There’s a mass of sweet fruit on the palate at present with much less acidity than Gonfaus, so I can see the logic for considering it as a potential blending addition. The tannins are soft and gentle, and there are some chicory-pine complexities to provide resolution for the sweet fruits; some spiciness too.
