Merum Priorati - Inici 2019
Tasting notes
Intense dark-cherry red in color with a garnet rim. Complex on the nose with aromatic notes of red fruit, especially raspberries and redcurrants, spicy tones and a backdrop of cassis. It gives a balsamic taste across the palate, with hints of sloe and pomegranate. Elegant and silky, it is well balanced with sweet, rounded tannins that lead to a smooth, lingering finish. The perfect match for wood-fired roasted turbot with potato gratin, cured ham, also ideal for accompanying grilled red meats.
Estate
Merum Priorati is one of the most important wine estates in Priorat. As this is one of the wildest, rugged terrains where few vines thrive and those that do produce very small yields. The wines of Merum Priorati are consistently highly rated and among the finest in the region. They were awarded the #4 selection in Wine Spectator’s Top 10 Wines of 2021 for their exceptional 95 Point Destí from the 2018 vintage. The estate only produces three expressions: El Cel, Inici & Destí. Each delivers intense and serious complexity against a backdrop of bright and vibrant modern fruit. These special wines are only available in limited quantities.
