2006 Coranya, Celler Sangenís i Vaqué, Priorat, Spain

Description

Deeply coloured, with a rich, complex nose of black cherry, leather and sandalwood, and a touch of sweet spice. Powerful yet restrained on the palate, with a seam of acidity proving the perfect foil to the dense tannins and the ripe dark fruit character. A spicy finish of impressive length.

About this wine

Carignan

Celler Sangenis i Vaque

From an historic Priorat family which can trace its lineage back to before 1700, the Bodega Sangenís i Vaqué was founded in 1978 by Pere Sangenís and Conxita Vaqué in the wine region of Priorat. The vineyards are located in Porrera, famous for its llicorella (schist and slate) terraces and vines, all of which are venerable, and divided between Garnacha and Cariñena. Minimal intervention in the winery is the philosophy here and the wines are aged in a combination of French (85%) and American (15%) oak for 12 months. They are then bottled unfined and unfiltered and can, as a result, be seen as amongst the purest and most traditional, in all its best senses, from this magical denominación.
