Producer's Notes

In the southern Priorat village of Bellmunt, Clos Cypres is an organically-farmed, west-facing samsó (carignan) vineyard at 300m to 375m, planted in 1934 at the historic Finca Sant Martí. The oldest part of this vineyard was named Clos Cypres for the ancient cypress trees which stand sentinel over the adjacent graveyard. The carignan wines of Bellmunt transmit the luminosity and warmth of the Mediterranean; they are soft and generous with developed tannins and a cool minerality from the trademark red slate llicorella soils. Comparisons can be made with the Brunate cru from La Morra in Barolo for a similar combination of generous fruit expression and structured backbone that fruit from Clos Cypres shows. Clos Cypres is a limited 100% samsó (carignan) Vi de Paratge bottling, built to improve with additional time in bottle. Wines are made with low intervention and minimal sulfur at bottling.
