Appearance |
The red wine Plaer is deep ruby with some violet tinges. |
Nose |
After some aeration, this blend of Carignan and Grenache displays aromas of warm stones, jammy black fruit, cocoa powder, Mediterranean underbrush, some nuances of violets and roses, and some deep mineral, earthy and smokey remembrances. |
Palate |
Complex and utterly characteristic, this red wine of Acústic Celler expresses a deep sense of place and the uniqueness of Priorat's terroir. Mineral and earthy remembrances, pure notions of red and black fruit, a dash of blueberries and cocoa and hints of flowers and spices. Bold tannins that will mellow over time, zippy acidity and long, complex finish. |
Our personal opinion |
Still in the making and with some of room for growth, the wine Plaer 2021 embodies the true spirit of Priorat. |
