The wine

A wine that expresses the typicality of the Priorat region, and specifically of this denomination’s southern part, and also of an estate where the vineyards are integrated in an environment that is partly left in its natural state, amidst woods, with almond, olive and hazelnut trees, and clumps of lavender and rosemary bushes growing among the grapevines.

Clos Fontà originates from a selection of grapes that come from parcels with older vines, in order to obtain more powerfulness, concentration and complexity, should we make comparisons with its younger sibling, Coma Vella. A wine without too much fuss, with sweet tannins, which involves taking time and care to appreciate the balanced palate from start right through to the lengthy finish.

NOTE: Decanting is recommended before serving.

Aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. It subsequently rests for 6 months in bottle.

The location is known as the Priorat’s “botanical garden”, due to the presence of small clumps of lavender and rosemary bushes growing amongst the vines. Mas d’en Gil...
