Parker/Luis Gutierrez: Quite light colored for such torrid vintage, the 2011 Roquers de Porrera has aromas of tree bark and a mixture of red and black fruit with a spicy twist. It also has the earthy and balsamic character of the zone. The palate is medium to full-bodied with some flavors of cherries in liqueur and very balsamic flavors framed by dusty, slightly rustic tannins. It's mostly Cariñena, the classic grape from the village of Porrera. 5,000 bottles.
The Porrera winery l'Encastell has a new Cariñena-only wine from an impressive plot in the Mas d'en Caçador vineyard where the vines are very old. Rustic, powerful wines in the old Priorat style.
Tint:
Tief dunkles Purpur. Sehr dicht.
Catch:
Mittlkräftiges Bukett von dunklen Beeren und reife Kirschen.
Taste:
Ein kräftiger Körper mit samtigen Taninen und einer sanften, warmen Säure ist am Gaumen auszumachen.
Overall:
Der Wein eignet sich gut für ein Wildgericht oder zu einem Braten.
