Winemaker’s notes:
Costers del Gravet is a deep red ruby colour with blue-violet shade; mouthful aromas of ripe cherry fruit, plums, blueberry, very fine, spicy, smoky toasty oak flavours, full bodied, soft but present tannins, wonderful fresh acidity, acidity-alcohol perfectly balanced, fine viscose, Glycerin sweetness, long finish.

Game, beef, entrecote, BBQ, stew, cheeses, any toasty, smoky, wild and herby flavors

Critical Acclaim:
“From the appellation of Montsant (next door to Priorat), the 2010 Costers del Gravet is made from an intriguing blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Grenache and 20% Carignan (or as the Spanish call it, Carinena) that spent 12 months in new and up to 2-year-old American and French oak. Abundant notes of toasty oak, espresso roast, white chocolate, blackberries and black currants are found in this dense ruby/purple-colored 2010. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated with terrific fruit as well as intensity, it should drink well for 7-8 years. ” 91 Pts – The Wine Advocate
