Dèria 2007 - Priorat
I tested a bottle of Dèria 2007 from Priorat. A strong wine which was 12 month in French oak barrels. Some aging will do the wine certainly well.

Mores Finca 2008 - Montsant
Mores Finca is from Montsant, north of Priorat, close to Tarragona. This wine was 3 months in oak. It does not have the taste of the oak. A powerful wine in the lower price region. Recommended with meat or pasta.
I bought the wine in a small wine shop in Poble Nou, Barcelona.
