The 2006 Santbru is 65% Carinena, 29% Garnacha, and 15% Syrah aged 14 months in 80% new French oak. It delivers an expressive nose of underbrush, mineral, lavender, black cherry, and wild blueberry. Layered, bordering on opulent, this concentrated, dense, youthful effort will benefit from 3-5 years in the cellar. Its drinking window will extend from 2013 to 2026. Portal del Montsant was founded in 2001 by Alfredo Arribas. The vineyards are farmed organically.Importer: Steve Miles Selections, Denver, CO; tel. (303) 495-3811
