One of only two Vins de Finca Qualificada from Priorat, the 2013 Clos Mogador is a complex blend of Garnacha and Cariñena with a touch of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. It felt serious and a little backward, terribly balanced with shy notes of peat and graphite emerging with some time in the glass, subtle and complex, slowly revealing nuances of dark cherries, violets, black olives and later some red fruit. The palate is surprising: when I expected it to show its power, it just whispered and danced on my tongue with lively acidity that made it feel a lot lighter than it is. There is depth, elegance and incipient complexity. Here everything is in perfect harmony, with lots of everything, dry extract, acidity, alcohol and tannin, but somehow you don't notice any of it. A remarkable vintage of Mogador. Given the quality, the price seems like a bargain, and availability shouldn't be too bad either, as some 28,000 bottles were filled in June 2015. Put it aside in your cellar, because this is a 20-year bottle of Priorat.

Clos Mogador
In der Weinregion Priorat, auf den wilden Hügeln über Tarragona und unweit der Nordostküste Spaniens gelegen, wurde Clos Mogador in den 1980`er Jahren von René Barbier etabliert. In Burgund und dann an der Universität von Bordeaux ausgebildet, lernte er auf vielen Anwesen und Weingütern in ganz Frankreich, unter anderem bei Château Pétrus. Die Weinberge von Clos Mogador befinden sich auf „terrassierten“ Hängen in der Nähe des Dorfes Gratallops und profitieren von einem außergewöhnlichen Schieferboden. Mithilfe seines Wissens sowie unter Einsatz moderner Techniken kümmert sich René Barbier um jedes Detail. Er setzt auf biologische Vielfalt durch das Anpflanzen von Obst, Mandel und Olivenbäumen sowie Blumen in den Weinbergen. Er galt als exzentrisch, beharrte auf seine Methoden und setzte sich so von anderen lokalen Produzenten ab. Er setzte sich besonders durch die Auswahl seiner Trauben, der Verwendung einer Jahrhunderten alten vertikalen Presse, die er aus einem alten Keller rettete als auch durch die Verwendung von Holz- oder Zement- anstatt Edelstahltanks. Die Weinherstellung findet in offenen Holzfässern statt und die Weine werden nicht gefiltert. Die Ergebnisse sind hervorragend und haben Clos Mogador eine internationale Fangemeinde eingebracht.
