Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 Points:The 2008 Vina el Pison comes from a single vineyard planted in 1945 on pure limestone. It is the epitome of elegance with a sensual bouquet, a silky texture, already complex flavors, and a lengthy, pure finish. It...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97+ Points:The 2007 Termanthia is, like the 2007 Numanthia, a bit more accessible than its 2006 counterpart. That is to say that it should begin to become civilized with a mere 6-8 years of cellaring and should offer a...

Robert Parker The Wine Advocate:  92 Points The 2008 Espectacle del Montsant has a very distinctive, oyster shell-scented bouquet that expresses its terroir extremely well, hints of fennel emerging with continued aeration. The palate is fleshy in...

Winery Notes: A sparkling wine marked by the typicity of its place of origin, the Vinya del Llac, a vineyard over 40 years’ old,which allows for a structured,fresh and complex sparkling wine.

In the past few months, here at PRIMA Vini, we have neglected the wonderful wines of Spain so I’d like to address that oversight with the inclusion of a delightful white wine from northeast Spain, the Penedes region to be more specific.  The...

Winemaker's Note:#5 Wine Enthusiast Top 100 of 2017The vineyards, located at an elevation of 1,050 feet, are comprised of the famous chalky soil called Albariza and the 40-year-old vines produce extremely low yields. The grapes were hand-harvested at the...

95 Points Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateThe NV Don Gonzalo Oloroso 20 Anos VOS, produced with Palomino grapes from the Carrascal vineyards, is fermented in stainless steel and aged for over 20 years in oak botas. It is a very serious Oloroso, even if...
