Marco Abella Clos Abella 2012
Clos Abella is a true expression of the Porrera terroir. This wine utilizes the best hand picked organic estate grown grapes to create a perfect blend of the Priorat's two indigenous varieties, Carignan (50%) and Grenache (39%), with an added touch of Cabernet Sauvignon (11%). Elegant and balanced with flavors of black cherry, mineral, oak spices, and chocolate flavors. Silky tannins with a long, fresh finish.
