點擊次數(shù)：2202

The 2005 Mas Negre is 60% Carinena and 40% Garnacha from the village of El Molar in Priorat. It was aged for 12 months in French and American oak and bottled unfiltered. Purple-colored, it offers up an excellent nose of slate, mineral, black cherry, and blueberry compote. Firm, dense, and with excellent length, this is one of the finer values in Priorat on the market. Give it 2-4 years of additional cellaring and drink it through 2020.

The 2004 Mas de Negre is the only wine from this producer that did not knock me out. Composed of 80% Garnacha and 20% Carinena from organically farmed old vines located in Priorat and then aged for 6 months in used Allier barrels, it is bottled unfined and unfiltered. This large-scaled wine is purple-colored with spice box, earth, black cherry and blackberry aromatics. On the palate the wine is firm to the point of suppressing much of the fruit and the finish hard and slightly abrupt. There appears to be plenty of material so if this wine comes together with the necessary 3-5 years of bottle age, my score may look stingy. mporter: Jose Pastor, Vinos and Gourmet Inc., Richmond, CA; tel.
