2001 Rotllan Tora - Tirant
Within the steeps slopes of Priorat lies the small mountain village of Torroja del Priorat. The estate has long been known for their old vines and atypical blends.The Tirant is an extraordinary effort with only 9,000-bottles made from 30% Grenache (90-100 years old), 25% Carignan (90-100 years old), 25% young vine Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Syrah, and 10% Merlot. Fermented in large oak foudres and aged 12 months in new French oak, the wine was bottled without fining or filtration.
