ロトリャン トーラ ティラン[2001] Rottlan Torra Tirant, Rotllan Torra

プリオラートの先駆者的な葡萄園がロトリャン・トーラです。 樹齢90年以上のガルナッチャとカリニャンを中心に造られた「Tirant ティラン」。この機会に是非お試しください。

A prodigious effort, the 2001 Tirant is a 9,000-bottle cuvee made from 30% Grenache (90-100 years old), 25% Carignan (90-100 years old), 25% young vine Cabernet Sauvon, 10% Syrah, and 10% lot. Fermented in large oak foudres and aged 12 months in new French oak, it will be bottled with neither fining nor filtration. Inky/purple-colored to the rim, it boasts a spectacular bouquet of blueberries, blackberries, and the region's classic crushed stone minerality. This throttle yet remarkably elegant 2001 possesses tremendous intensity and texture as layers of flavor, The 60-second finish reveals more noticeable tannin than the other cuvees. Give it 1-2 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 10-15. The 2001 Tirant is indeed a special wine.
