Ferrer Bobet Selecció Especial 2019

 Impressively complex and deep nose with fine roasted spices, tar, lard, cigar box and plenty of mossy black cherries, wild strawberries and blackberries. Concentrated but nothing hefty here, with a barely medium- to full-bodied palate and a very flavorful and succulent finish. Lasting a minute. Drink or hold.

Still young as it enters it's 5th year, but starting to express itself; old vine, varietal Carignan aged in largely new, French oak for 18 months. Ripe, powerful and very persistent. Ripe blueberry and blackberry fruits, liquorice, smoke and garrigue on the nose, leading to refreshing acidity over structured, firm tannins. Long and tapered on the finish, with a touch of crushed rock as a final point. 2024-2034
