Along with the 2014, I also tasted the 2015 Salmos, which is from an earlier and riper year. It's a similar blend of Cari?ena, Garnacha and Syrah from the same vineyards and produced in a similar way, with fermentation in stainless steel and aged in French barriques for 14 months. The wine showed more finesse and freshness than the 2014, and there is more depth and complexity here too. There are some tannins that would welcome food and/or some more time in bottle. Very tasty.

This red shows a velvety texture, with firm underlying tannins. Kirsch and currant flavors mingle with licorice and espresso notes. Orange peel acidity keeps this lively. A bit lean but focused. Drink now through 2023. 600 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Priorat Select to Add
