WINE DESCRIPTION
This intense and full-bodied red wine from the Priorat region of Spain is a classic example of traditional Spanish winemaking. Clos Mogador is made from a blend of old-vine Garnacha and Cariñena grapes harvested by hand. The wine is aged for 20 months in oak, giving it a complex aroma of dark fruits, spices, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied with notes of ripe blackberry, mocha, licorice, and a hint of smokiness. The finish is long and lingering, with soft tannins and a lingering savoriness. Clos Mogador is a perfect accompaniment to a variety of dishes, from roasted meats and game to aged cheeses.
