"A lively wine, peppery with an abundance of natural, fruit-derived spice. Sourced from grenache carignan and syrah grown in the schisty soils of Maury. Nots of tender violet petals add further dimension to the palate. Delicately structured with fine acidity, gentle tannins and well balanced oak spice. Excellent length."

Clos del Rey turns out fantastic wines that are rich, powerful and concentrated yet maintain stunning freshness. The vines of up to 120 years old are allowed to grow natural and untrained, in the old-fashioned way, known as the goblet or bush style. However, it is what lies beneath the vineyard that lends much of the character and complexity found in their wines. The winery resides on an abandoned iron mine imparting red and orange hues to the soils of Clos del Rey, this Iron also adds a soft minerality and silky mouthfeel to the wines.
They combine the meatiness of 'Rhône' varietals, with the elegance and refinement brought from their high altitude plots.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
