The 2006 Latria spent eight months in seasoned oak. It exhibits an expressive nose of mineral and black cherry. Ripe, full-flavored, and seamless on the palate, it was designed for pleasure. Drink it over the next four years.
For those looking for Priorat-styled wines without the lofty price tag, Montsant is the place to search.
