Clos I Terrasses Del Priorat Laurel is a finely balanced red defined by layers of red and black fruit, gentle earthy nuance and refined tannins.

Winemaking prioritises definition, with controlled fermentation and gentle maceration, then a patient maturation to polish structure and extend the finish.

Vineyard choices are guided by long-term stewardship; where organic, biodynamic or other sustainability certifications apply, they are reflected in the product sustainability details.

Made by a quality-focused team, the wine reflects a commitment to thoughtful viticulture and measured maturation, with an emphasis on sense of place over heavy-handed winemaking. Behind the label is a hands-on philosophy, where decisions are shaped by the people leading the estate and their long-term vision for the vineyards.

Tasting notes

Deep ruby red with garnet nuances. Elegant and expressive nose of dark black raspberry, violet, and smoked bacon with distinctive llicorella minerality and subtle garrigue notes. Medium to full-bodied palate with perfectly ripe tannins showing impressive definition and finesse. Concentrated dark fruit flavours carry a muscular structure tempered by restraint and balance. The wine is approachable and expressive with layers of blackberry, cinnamon, and slate character unfolding with each sip. Long and satisfying finish with lingering mineral and spice complexity.
