If you are a fan of wines like Colgin or Bryant Family, or simply wonder what they might taste like go no further than the 2000 Roquers de Porrera Celler De L'Encastell from the Priorat, Spain. While it is made from very old vine, mountain grown Grenache, Carignane, and Merlot it is proportioned very much like a New World Cabernet of mammoth intensity and lavish proportion. Absolutely explosive on the palate and swiming with cassis, baconfat and vanilla the wine stays nearly weightless despite massive richness and show stopping purity. Recomended with aplomb!
