WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Deeply opaque, intense garnet colour. Expressive, rich, and fruit-laden (blueberry, morello or sour cherry jam) nose with spicy (black pepper) notes and dried fruit (fig, dates, dried plum) undertones that meld with oak imparted toasty nuances. The palate is light and velvety, delicate rather than nervy, but persistent and pleasant.
TASTING NOTES:
A hint of grilled Mediterranean herbs to the red berries, red cherries and some spices. Dusty, creamy tannins on the medium-bodied palate with a juicy, composed finish.

The 2021 Purgatori is a blend of 75% Garnacha and 25% Cariñena from Costers del Segre. Aged in one-third-new oak barrels for up to 12 months, this garnet-hued wine reveals notes of cotton candy and herbs atop a core of red fruit. It is dry, plush and rich with smooth tannins, concluding with a broad and flavorful finish.
