LES MINES PRIORAT 2016 93 BB W&S Oct20

TOP 100 BEST BUYS; A blend of garnacha and carinena with 25 percent merlot, this is a big wine but the flavors have a pointed clarity—fresh confituras and smoky sandalwood candle. The structure is clean and tight and finishes with dusty driedherb notes and a balsamic sweetness. –  R.D. T.
