Just finished this bottle with halibut with a spicy tomato sauce. It was an amazing bottle from the winery which we visited in the Priorat in October. I would definitely recommend visiting the winery and the nearby restaurant if the opportunity arises.
The wine is very aromatic with and a blend of Garancha blanca, Carutxa, Macabeo and Moscatel and it definitely has the charcterstic Priorat terroir. I'm surprised I liked the wine this much as I drink mostly reds. The wineries website is costersdelsiurana.com.
Cheers,

Can you get it here in the states? Also, with this interesting blend, is the wine dry? semi-dry?
Thanks, mark

This wine is definitely a dry wine, which is more to my liking. I'm terrible at describing aromas but I remeber aromas of green apples and floral notes, but the taste had strong herbal tastes. I found a link to purchase this wine, although I have never used this site before here's the link: http://www.liquorama.net/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=26309
Hope this helps,

Glad you liked it, but $48 for an SW is a little too much for me. One could by a Loring Pinot and get change.
