Merum Priorati Description

Winemaker Notes

Aromas of red fruit with mineral, menthol, and licorice notes. On the palate, it is expressive, round, and creamy, with delicate tannins. Its flavor reflects fresh fruit, with a long and elegant finish. Desti is an honest and coherent wine, as the expression of fresh fruit is reborn on the palate. The finish is long and elegant.

Desti 2022 combines perfectly with rather lean dishes: a coca de trempo with prawns; a turbot baked in a wood oven with potato millefeuille monalisa and Iberian ham. It is also ideal to accompany grilled red meats painted with aromatic herbs.

Professional Ratings

93 Decanter
Wild strawberry and plum character with nuances of cracked pepper and nutmeg. Svelte and fresh, soft tannins, very approachable.
93 Wine Spectator
A rich red, brightened by tangy, balsamico-infused acidity, this offers flavors of pureed black raspberry, plum sauce and dark chocolate, plus a savory underpinning of minerally iron, stone and loamy earth. Chalky-textured tannins firm the spiced finish. Best after 2037.
92 Wilfred Wong of Wine.com
Deep ruby in color, the 2022 Merum Priorati Destí reveals aromas of savory spices, crushed rocks, and dried cherries. Bold and expressive on the palate, it delivers a powerful rush of ripe berries and well-integrated oak. Pair it with Carne de Porco à Alentejana—a traditional Portuguese pork stew—for a rustic and satisfying match that highlights the wine’s intensity and earthy complexity.

91 James Suckling

Spicy and peppery nose, with attractive peppercorns, ripe berries, currants and cherries. Flavorful and medium-bodied, with fine-grained tannins and a medium-long finish. Vegan.
