The 2011 Vinya Palau Merlot is sourced from a single vineyard on clay, chalk and sand soils that matured in French barriques or one year. The nose shows lots of iron and blood, and none of the herbal aromas you'd expect from the Bordeaux grape. 2011 was certainly warm, and the Merlot must have ripened fully. The variety is more noticeable in the medium to full-bodied palate where I found the tannins of the grape and some classical flavors of the élevage, lead pencil and cedar wood. Polished and approachable. 13,000 bottles produced.
