1997 Costers del Siurana Clos de l’Obac, Priorat DOCa, Spain, 6 bottles

£595.00

A very sought after Priorat with the capability to age, prices are staggering for old vintages of this wine but I have listed it at a very sensible drinking  price point under £100 a bottle!!!!

Grape Assemblage

Cabernet – Grenache – Merlot – Syrah blends represent a coming together of the key wine grapes of Bordeaux and the Rhone Valley – two of France’s major wine regions. It also illustrates the modern age of viticulture and winemaking – an age in which winemakers have a smorgasbord of grape varieties at their disposal and are not limited to those traditionally grown (and approved of) in their local region.
