The eponymous 2017 Ferrer-Bobet is a blend of 65% Cari?ena, 25% Garnacha, 15% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon mostly from their own vines planted between 2004 and 2005 on llicorella slate on terraces and slopes, higher in Cari?ena in this warmer year. It fermented after a short cold maceration and matured in French barriques for 12 months. This is fresh and elegant, a character of Cari?ena on poor soils. The wine has good ripeness but no with no excess; it has floral aromas and even an herbal touch. It's supple and spicy and has magical freshness. It has more Cari?ena than ever. 17,680 bottles and 500 magnums were filled in February 2019.

2016 was a fresher year than 2015, and so the 2016 Ferrer-Bobet is also fresher than the 2015, with a little less alcohol and more acidity. The blend changed a bit—there is less Syrah and Cabernet (a constant in the last few years)—to 60% Cari?ena, 25% Garnacha, 10% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a beautiful nose of fresh fruit, with cherries and a peachy quality, very subtle oak and spices. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins and vibrant acidity. 22,475 bottles and 500 magnums produced. It was bottled in March 2018.

This red is gentle, with a lively structure and balanced flavors of cherry, mountain herb, licorice and mineral. Though not a showstopper, this delivers harmony and depth. Drink now through 2030. 1,977 cases made, 301 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Priorat Select to Add
