L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

"Grapes from younger vines are used for the 2016 Les Crestes, which is also released earlier. It's a blend of Garnacha with 20% Cariñena and 10% Syrah matured in second use French oak barrels for eight months. 2016 was a dry growing season saved by a cooler September with some rain, which resulted in a relaxed and long harvest of grapes with good ripeness and acidity. It's young, tender and aromatic, a gentle Priorat with a juicy palate and a fresh personality. Really attractive and pleasant. 48,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2017."

Peñín:

Color: cereza, borde violáceo. Aroma: fruta roja, fruta madura, floral, hierbas de monte, mineral. Boca: equilibrado, estructurado, sabroso.  

Decanter:

A lovely wine with notes of soft, ripe red fruit on the nose. The palate is earthy and spicy with firm, high tannins and long length.

Suckling:

Much cooler and more complex than most Priorat reds, this has aromas of fresh cherries, anise and smoke. Makes quite a bold and weighty impression on the palate. The dry tannins build quite steadily, not dominating until the finish. Drink or hold.
