Clos Mogador Priorat Gratallops
Clos Mogador was founded by visionary and leader of the Priorat revolution René Barbier. This is a must try for any serious Spanish wine aficionado. Located in Gratallops, in the heart of the Priorat hills, Clos Mogador is an intensely concentrated wine from a blend 45% Garnacha, 29% Cariñena, 16% Syrah, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. This distinctive blend balances the power and massive structure typical of Priorat with an elegance and finesse that belies its aging potential. While the Clos Mogador will continue to improve for 10 years or more, it can be drunk young.
"Grenache, Carignan, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon bide their time in carefully selected French oak barrels and only reappear when the moment is right, full of promise and hidden joy. This is by no means an industrial process. The few bottles of Clos Mogador are made with affection, attentively following in the ‘Grands Crus’ traditional artisan methods. Uncork a bottle of Clos Mogador, sit back, relax and enjoy the moment. Salut!" - René Barbier, Clos Mogador
