The winery's flagship wine, Clos de l'Obac, is a blend of several varieties from seven different vineyards in the municipality of Gratallops in the Priorat region. A fine wine with extraordinary power, structure and complexity, produced since 1989 by Costers del Siurana, a family winery founded in 1974 by Carles Pastrana and Mariona Jarque, two of the pioneers who rediscovered the Priorat.

The winery produces a range of fine wines with excellent ageing potential. All their wines come from their own vineyards situated in the Sierra del Siurana, on steep slopes with poor, stony soils. Their wines have gained international recognition for their quality and complexity.

The wines are produced in the traditional way, adhering to a fixed coupage system that repeats the varieties and percentages of grapes each year, defining the character and personality of each wine according to the characteristics of the climate of each vintage.

Production: 

Made from a blend of different varieties that complement each other. The Grenache and the Carinyena grapes come from the oldest vineyards, over 50 years old. Slow fermented and aged for 12 months in French oak barrels and a further 9 years in the bottle.

Tasting Notes:

With a strong Priorat typicity, mineral, spicy notes of ripe black fruit, and hints of mountain herbs. A full-bodied wine with great intensity and complexity on the palate, marked ripe tannins, and long and persistent over time.

Notes: Drink now or keep for a few years. A wine with a great capacity for ageing. It is recommended to decant or serve the wine in advance.
