Clos Figueras - Clos Figueres 2015 (750ml)

Lively red cherry and black fruit flavors with a touch of classy oak. Young and fresh with the classic mineral character of the Priorat. Smooth and rich with great finesse, depth and class. Aging potential for up to 20 years. Critical Acclaim RP92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The riper and warmer 2015 Clos Figueres fermented in new 500-liter French oak barrels and matured in French barriques for 14 to 16 months. There is a tad more ripeness compared with the 2014, but there are no signs of excess. It's powerful while keeping its poise and manages to come through as balanced within its full body and plenty of tannins. A powerful red Priorat true to the vintage. I think it's a matter of taste if you like 2014 or 2015 better, because quality is pretty homogeneous. Rating: 92+ WS90 Wine Spectator Black cherry and plum flavors mingle with cocoa, spice and licorice flavors in this lively red. Bright acidity and firm tannins keep this grounded. Ripe yet focused.
