Description
For such a major wine region of Spain, it's surprising how few Priorat wines are widely available in New Zealand. This Petit Pissares is a gem of a discovery, showing off the primacy of Garnacha Tinta (Grenache) in this area just south of Barcelona. A bright, succulent and silky soft red wine in the finest full-bodied Grenache traditions, it sees 6 months oak aging in new and 2-year-old barrels. Serve at 14 to 16 degrees (very lightly chilled) as cooler serving temperatures give the wine freshness.
Smells
roasted red meats with blackberries thrown in the baking dish, ripe plums, chocolate and brown spices.
Tastes
big, ripe, plush wine with dark fruits flavour, which is saved by the savoury meaty complexity, mouth coating tannins and zingy acidity. For a riper style this is delish. Perfect with game and red meats now and for the following 3-4 years.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
