Pissarres Tasting note
The world of colors and aromatic sensations that we find walking along any path of Priorat is concentrated in this wine which is the mirror of our region. Dark red, depth, energy and wisdom of the ' Costers ' selected. It's complex in the mouth. It gathers ripe fruits, memories of the Mediterranean scrub and also a characteristic sharp and cold note, mark of the extreme minerality of the slate soils of Llicorella.
