Priorat DOCa Alvaro Palacios Vi de Vila Gratallops Gratallops 2009

The wine

This cuvée is produced from six different vineyard parcels. It has aromas of very ripe dark fruit, empyreumatic notes and a touch of the mineral. The palate is moderately full, with silky tannins and a pleasant fresh quality. The finish is very persistent. A round and nicely balanced wine.
