Franck Massard EDA 2014
Selected with intention
The 2014 Franck Massard EDA is a compelling red blend from Priorat, showcasing the region's unique terroir and the expressive power of its old-vine Garnacha and Cariñena. 'EDA' represents a selection of the finest parcels, designed for depth and longevity. The nose is intensely aromatic, offering a complex interplay of ripe dark berries, liquorice, smoked herbs, and a distinctive mineral earthiness from the llicorella soils. On the palate, it is full-bodied and richly textured, with firm yet well-integrated tannins that provide structure and grip. The fruit is concentrated and savory, balanced by a vibrant acidity. The finish is remarkably long, echoing with dark fruit, spice, and mineral notes. This 2014 is showing beautifully now, but possesses the intensity to evolve further for another 5-7 years.
