Parmí, L'Infant
(leen-FAHNT)

 

Tasting Notes: This is a blisteringly clean, fascinating wine–fermented, but not aged in oak. The result is a touch of rotundity to balance the natural, searing focus achieved in Priorat. With notes of grenadine, pomegranate, soy, blood orange, and pencil lead, this wine is one of the few reasonably priced wines out of Spain’s most expensive zone.
