Clos Galena

Clos Galena is a red wine coupage of red Grenache (40%), Carignan (20%), Syrah (20%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (20%).

TASTING NOTE
Intense cherry color, almost opaque and of high complexity, very elegant and mature. In this wine, we try to extract all the potential of the terroir so characteristic of the Priorat in each plot of vineyard, separately to show its own individuality. Emphasizes its aromatic, clean and elegant amplitude, predominating spices, especially black, which merge with ripe fruit. It also combines minerality with balsamic. In the mouth, it is a very complex wine, intense, voluminous and long. All this contributes to making this a meaty, fresh and long wine.

VINIFICATION
Rigorous manual selection of the grapes, from five of the fourteen plots of organic farming vineyard owned by Clos Galena, based on the type of land and the adaptation of the vine to it. The fermentation and maceration of each variety take place separately, in stainless steel tanks. Subsequently a soft pressing of the skins is carried out, to continue with the malolactic fermentation. Finally, the coupage of the different varieties is made before entering barrels.

AGING
Aged for 12 months in new French oak first year barrels. After 24 months of resting in the bottle in the cellar.

PAIRING
Ideal to accompany rice and pasta, white and red meats, sausages and cured cheeses, stews of meat, fish and vegetables.
