Galena, organic Priorat

Dry red wine from the DOQ Priorat wine region in North-West Spain. This is really a great organic red wine! Second wine from top winery Clos Galena from Priorato. Blend: Garnacha 35%, Cabernet Sauvignon 25%, Merlot 25%, Cariñena 15% (aka Samsó or Carignan). Each grape variety fermented separately on stainless steel. After the malolactic fermentation - malo - the blend goes into barrel (oak barriques).
This wine has matured for 12 months on French and American wood (90/10). And then another 24 months in bottle. Beautiful balance, full and exciting. Clos Galena works organically.

DOQ Priority

Priorat is - with Rioja - the only Spanish wine region with DOQ status: Denominacion d'Origen Qualificada . The other wine regions are only DO, Denominacion d'Origen.
Galena is the local name for a silvery mineral mined in local mines. Llicorella is the name for mica schist, the mineral-rich, nitrogen-poor slate soil containing mica.

This red wine comes with 2 different labels. We normally have the one with the beautiful lady on it.
