The Rene Barbier Clos mogador Manyetes bears the "Vi de Villa Gratallops" label, as it is from Carinena vineyards in the village of Gratallops. The vineyard is located at almost 400 meters and is only 10Ha in the most inhospitable Priorat area. The yield of some canes is sometimes less than 200 grams. The 10 Ha vineyard is a vineyard between the almond and olive trees so the actual amount of vines is less than 3HA.
The Rene Barbier Clos mogador Manyetes bears the "Vi de Villa Gratallops" label, as it is from Carinena vineyards in the village of Gratallops. The vineyard is located at almost 400 meters and is only 10ha in size (of which only 3ha of vines) in the most inhospitable Priorat area. The Manyetes is a 100% Carignan which has been allowed to mature for 18 months in the best (new) European oak. The bright purple-colored Manyetes has a complex nose of wet slate, graphite and peat mixed with blueberry, violet and licorice aromas in a very harmonious way. The taste is wonderfully rustic, with polished tannins, good acidity, pure flavors and a very long finish. It is made from the classic Priorat grape de Carignan from a very old vineyard. This is the brother of the more famous Clos Mogador, but this is mainly because only 1740 bottles were made (and of the 2020 it will only be a few hundred bottles). but this brother of the Clos Mogador is just as beautiful.
The different terroirs that exist within the Priorat wine designation have led to the creation of a new "Village Wine - Gratallops". Like in Burgundy, France and is a bit similar to Antinori with his Super Tuscans
Manyetes is the name of a vineyard in Gratallops: a daring venture where vines can barely survive given the region's poor soil and intense sunlight. The vines are literally surviving, but this is exactly what the main essence of Priorat wines is. Extremely low yields, a vine that has to root extremely deeply on the steep sloping slate slopes and this extraordinary vineyard in an extraordinary environment produces extraordinary wines.
