One of the most difficult to find in Asia, wines from the Priorato region are hoarded for sale mostly in North America.
These wines are one of the most closely guarded secrets of the Spanish vino connoisseur, being among the most consistently rated (92 on wine spectator) internationally. Their charm is also enhanced by the fact that Priorato is traditionally a low-yielding geographic area.
Pictured up close is a 2002 product, which is from the lowest-yielding year of the past ten. We intend to drink this by year-end, hopefully pairing it with pan-seared foie gras.
