Alvaro Palacios 'Camins del Priorat' Garnacha 2021 shadowfax 93 POINTS - Jasper MorrisDarkly spiced, meaty and featuring root vegies, and their ashy earth. Dark fruited and leather edged, with a deep, pure earthiness, nutty tannin, and a delightfully controlled rusticity. Joyous Priorat Garnacha tell tales of orange juice and ruby grapefruit perkiness are there too, with the cheeriest aftertaste. Full bodied with rich, deeply concentrated black fruit flavors. Dark spices on the finish with some anise. Great for hearty meat dishes.
