25% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier

like Coche-Dury

I also tasted a richer

a touch of animal and resinous-like tannins that speak of the inclusion of stems (a hallmark of the Levet tradition)

with enjoyable fruitiness and nuances of fresh fruit

Alvaro Palacios "Camins" Priorat, Catalonia, Spain 2023 merch 25% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier40% Garnacha, 30% Samso (Carignan), 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Syrah. This wine stays true to Alvaro's vision of Priorat powerful but elegant, approachable but restrained. The mouthfeel is velvety with great freshness and very fine tannins. Practicing organic from a combination of estate vineyards and purchased grapes.
