winemaker's notes:

"The 2004 Mas Donis Barrica is 85% Garnacha from 80+-year-old vines and 15% Syrah aged for 8 months in French and American oak. Opaque purple, it has a wonderfully expressive nose of spice box, pencil lead, pepper, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. On the palate the wine is full-bodied with layers of ripe, spicy black fruits, nicely concealed tannins, and a long, pure finish. It is an outstanding value for drinking now and over the next 4-6 years."

I would buy this wine again
My wife and I both loved this wine. Ripe fruit, full body, complex, and smooth through a lingering finish.

This is a jewel of a wine as its quality far surpasses its price making it an excellent value. This Eric Soloman wine has a lovely blueberry nose with a touch of spice. On the palate it is medium bodied with strong fruit, blackberry with hints of pepper. Near perfect balance and a nice smooth finish make this Garnacha/Syrah blend exceptionally nice. I rate it an 84. This goes very well with a mild summer sausage and Jarlsberg Swiss and I suspect would compliment a good dark chocolate as well. For more reviews please visit www.drivebycritic.com

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
