This wine, produced by a Cariñena and Garnacha cooperative, began as an attempt to make a 100% Garnacha, but ended up being a blend of 50% Garnacha and 50% Cariñena, later evolving to 5% Garnacha and 95% Cariñena. On the nose, it presents aromas of ripe red and black fruits, with balsamic, toasty, spicy, and menthol notes, along with hints of sweet pepper, rosemary, fennel, and nutmeg, and touches of black olives, licorice, cocoa, and olives. Some tasting notes highlight a complex and profound profile, with nuances of candied fruit, toasted wood, gum, dairy, and oak. On the palate, the wine is ample, with excellent body, fleshy stone fruit, good acidity, and a long finish that conveys sensations of ripe, fruity tannins and a slight sweet or liqueur-like aftertaste. It is described as fresh, with a medium body, light and well-defined tannins, and remarkable length. Some tasting notes mention a slightly bitter and metallic touch, but with a silky texture, highlighting its freshness and longevity. While some critics point out that the fruit's ripeness might be working against the balance, especially on the palate, suggesting it should be consumed soon, others consider it magnificent overall and an example of a wine that ages well. The wine has a deep cherry color, with ochre highlights and a medium-low intensity, and is considered a wine of courage for its focus on local varieties instead of Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah.

This wine is characterized by its powerful and concentrated profile, with aromas of fractured slate, juicy blackberry, dark plum, crushed coffee bean, and sweet spice. On the palate, it delivers dark flavors of black raspberry, wild blueberry, cocoa powder, licorice, and a generous dusting of Priorat’s classic crushed slate, reflecting the region’s unique black volcanic soils. The wine is aged for 13 months in 300 and 500-liter French oak casks with one end removed, which allows for a distinctive aging process. It has an alcohol content of 15.5%. The 2016 vintage has received a rating of 93 out of 100 from critics, with an average market price of $82 per 750ml bottle. The En Números Vermells Classic Garnatxa-Syrah 2019 is a red wine with deep black fruit aromas, including very ripe black berries, liquorice, tobacco, and smoky notes. On the palate, it is meaty with good depth, offering layers of spicy black fruits, silky texture, and muscular tannins, along with notes of liquorice, dark chocolate, and minerals. The wine exhibits excellent freshness and balance between fruit and acidity. It is recommended to let the wine breathe before drinking and has the potential to age well, continuing to develop over the next 10 to 12 years. The wine is a cuvée composed of 70% Black Garnatxa and Garnatxa Peluda, 25% Syrah, and 5% Carignan, sourced from old and very old vines in the Priorat region. It is aged in oak barrels for 13 months
