winemaker's notes:

La Cartuja, offers up a reticent nose of graphite, spice box, underbrush, lavender, black cherry, and plum. This leads to a plush, sweetly fruited, concentrated, mouth-filling wine for drinking over the next 5-6 years. It is an amazing value and a great introduction to Priorat.

This wine has enough "stuffing" and structure to pair well with BBQ beef brisket or pork, grilled Argentine beef with chimichurri sauce, and mesquite grilled or smoked baby back pork ribs. It also has a freshness and spice character that is a good match for Cuban roast chicken, pork with Latin spices and cracked pepper turkey.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%
critical acclaim:

"(50% garnacha, 30% carinena and 10% each of cabernet sauvignon and syrah): Vivid ruby. High-pitched red berries and Asian spices on the nose. Silky and emphatically fruity, offering fresh raspberry and cherry flavors and a hint of tangy minerality. A very fresh and suave blend with strong finishing spiciness and lingering florality. This reminds me a lot of pinot noir. "
