The 2010 L’Arbossar is Carinena from a north facing, fresh vineyard in Torroja where there is some granite that could be responsible for some of the special character the wine has vintage after vintage. It’s very expressive, with clear, clean and intense red fruit, almost shiny, with notes of flowers and a Burgundian sensation in both nose and palate, with a super-fine, silky texture. An elegant Carinena that destroys the idea of rusticity you might have about the grape. Drink now-2020. - Luis Gutierrez
