Ferrer Bobet Priorat 2017 (94 WA)
“The eponymous 2017 Ferrer-Bobet is a blend of 65% Cariñena, 25% Garnacha, 15% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon mostly from their own vines planted between 2004 and 2005 on llicorella slate on terraces and slopes, higher in Cariñena in this warmer year. It fermented after a short cold maceration and matured in French barriques for 12 months. This is fresh and elegant, a character of Cariñena on poor soils. The wine has good ripeness but no with no excess; it has floral aromas and even an herbal touch. It’s supple and spicy and has magical freshness. It has more Cariñena than ever.”
