2006 Triumvirat

The vineyard for the 2006 Triumvirat is 3.5 hectares in size planted to 90% Carinena, 5% Garnacha, and 5% Syrah. Opaque purple-colored, the multidimensional perfume offers up pain grille, scorched earth, pencil lead, wild blueberry, and black cherry. This is followed by a large-scaled, layered, opulent Priorat with gobs of spicy, intense, silky fruit, great balance, and a long, pure finish. Allow 3-5 years in the cellar and it will be at its best from 2012 to 2025. Importer: Eric Solomon, European Cellars, Charlotte, NC; tel. (704) 358-1565
