La Baixada, Alvaro Palacios 2020

Tasting Notes

Such a pure, mineral nose here, creating the effect of a fine gauze of chalk and wet stone shadowing the red and blue berries and wild strawberries, providing a nuanced and implicit feel. Undertones of iron, spiced flowers and moss, too. Great depth to the palate, with plenty of ultra-fine, chalky tannins that round it from the entry to the end, going on and on in the endless, mineral finish. Stunning! Such a great Priorat with real finesse that you can either drink now or hold.
