The 2005 Masos d’en Cubells is composed of 30% Garnacha, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Carinena, with the balance Merlot and Syrah aged for 12 months in French and American oak. Opaque purple in color, with an alluring nose of balsam wood, mineral, Asian spices, incense, lavender, black cherry, and plum, on the palate it is dense, full-bodied, and layered. It displays enough structure to evolve for 3-4 years, excellent balance, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. It will offer prime drinking from 2013 to 2025.

The late-released 2003 Masos d’en Cubells is a blend of all 5 of the permitted Priorat grape varieties. Purple-colored with a nose of slightly baked minerals, black, and blue fruits, on the palate it has a slightly rustic character and moderate tannin. Concentrated and dense, this full-bodied wine will evolve for 2-3 years and drink well through 2018. Importer: Folio Fine Wine Partners, Napa, CA; www.foliowine.com
