About Clos Fontà

Clos Fontà is a D.O.Q. Priorat red wine, produced by Mas d'en Gil.

This wine is a coupage of Garnacha Tinta and Cariñena from old vines produced in different slopes where olive trees, almond trees and typically Mediterranean vegetation is planted (only one third of the land is dedicated to vine production).
The grape varieties are farmed separately according to the variety and the plot of land from which the grapes originate. They are then joined to make a coupage.
This wine ages for 14 months in mostly French oak barrels, with a small portion in American oak barrels. It rests a minimum of six more months in the bottle.

We recommend decanting this wine about two hours before enjoying.
