Even more impressive than the Coma Vella was the 2016 Clos Fontà, from one of their finest vintages ever. It has the character of the dusty roads from Priorat, the decayed slate and the Mediterranean forest, a polished palate with abundant fine-grained tannins, lively acidity and great balance. This should continue developing in bottle for a long time. This blend of 60% Garnacha and 40% Cari?ena produced 7,518 bottles that were filled in May 2018 after maturing in barrel and foudre for 14 months.

A lively, enticing red, with a fragrant skein of graphite and exotic spice winding through flavors of black cherry and black plum reduction, minerally iron, licorice drop and dried lavender. Medium- to full-bodied and fresh, with firm, chalky tannins providing fine definition and chewy texture on the lasting finish. Grenache and Carignan. Drink now through 2031. 626 cases made, 18 cases imported.??–AN??Region: Spain / Priorat Select to Add
