2018 Perinet 'Merit' Tinto Priorat

Winemaker Notes: Ruby garnet with touches of Picota red cherry and mashed raspberries on the rim. On the nose, you’ll find a beautiful explosion of strawberries and violets, wild herbs, mint and sandalwood, and crushed metamorphic rocks. On the mouth is crisp and fruity, silky mid-palate with touches of wild berries. Appealing minerality, lingering acidity, and touches of dense tannins with balsamic notes and licorice.

Merit is our introduction to the Priorat, a craft blend that showcases the typicity of the region, and the varietals and vineyards of our estate. In Merit, Syrah and Garnatxa bring floral notes, and Carinyena and Merlot add complexity and earthiness to the wine. The blend changes slightly vintage to vintage to bring you a true terroir expression of the minerality llicorella driven soils into your glass.
