Celler Pinol L'Avi Arrufi Terra Alta Crianza 2017 (Spain) Rated 92TT

Store Tasting Team Review
Rated 92
This well-crafted, Mediterranean red is a beautiful cherry-red colored wine with intense ruby tones and a balanced, complex fruity bouquet; mulberry, currant, plums, hints of cacao and leather with spicy, peppery scents. Full bodied with a lingering aftertaste of quince, you'll find mineral and balsamic tones that remind you of the terroir. A perfect accompaniment for grilled meats, poultry, red meat and cheese.

Wine Tasting Notes
Celler Pinol L'Avi Arrufi Terra Alta Crianza is brilliant ruby in color. Highly perfumed red and blue fruit and violet aromas are enlivened by a peppery nuance and a strong suggestion of smoky minerals. Juicy and seamless on the palate, offering gently sweet black raspberry and cherry flavors that spread out steadily with air. Finishes sappy, sweet and very long, featuring lingering spiciness and firming tannins.
