Clos Mogador, Nelin 2014, D.O. Priorat, white wine, 0.75l

Thanks to natural yeasts a dark-coloured yellow wine is created, fermented slowly for six months and ageing for a further 15 months, before being bottled in February 2016. The grapes are grown at an altitude of 350 to 500 m above sea level on slate subsoil and are then hand-picked into small 10kg crates during the early morning hours, to avoid oxidation. 90% of the grapes are pressed to obtain must, while the remaining 10% of the grapes are macerated for 12 hours before pressing. Fermentation then takes place in oak barrels and vats at a temperature between 16 and 18°C and is extended by 4 to 5 weeks.

Ageing: 16 months in wooden barrels

Grape variety: Garnatxa blanca and Macabeu

Taste and aroma: It smells more of pips than of fruit. On the palate you can see power and elegance of spice and freshness of fruit such as cranberries, quince and apricots, accompanied by a hint of nuttiness and a mineral background.

Food pairing: We recommend serving at a temperature of 10-12°C. When it is ageing, the producer René Barbier himself comes to this wine and enjoys cheese tapas. In short, a complexity that we appreciate not only with cheeses, but also foie gras, fish or Asian specialities..
