If you are a red wine lover who hasn’t heard of Catalonia’s Priorat wine region, you are missing out. The home of some of Spain’s finest wineries and producer of the country’s highest rated reds (along with Rioja, of course), this secluded part of Catalonia does not attract the international attention it deserves. Priorat reds are typically made from a blend of Grenache and Carignan grapes, resulting in wines that are powerful, yet at the same time sophisticated, and silky smooth. Like the Clos Galena winery’s eponymous label, a mature wine with an intense, almost opaque, cherry color. Its aroma is complex, with notes of black fruit and balsamic. On the palate, Clos Galena is bulky and powerful.
