The 2006 Les Eres Especial dels Carners is made up of 75% Garnacha and 25% Carinena sourced from a tiny vineyard with average vine age of 95 years. The wine was aged in French oak for 18 months. Purple/black with serious glycerin oozing down the glass, the nose reveals sandalwood, wet stone, black licorice, Asian spices, incense, plum, and blackberry. Dense, rich, and full-bodied, it has plenty of power that should be a bit more harnessed with 4-6 years of additional bottle age.
