Barranc dels Closos 2001
The Barranc dels Closos is a blend of 80% Grenache
and 20% Carignan that has been aged for 3 months in
French oak. The outstanding 2001 Barranc dels Clossos's
deep ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of kirsch
liqueur, licorice, and sweet strawberry and cherry
fruit offered in a medium to full-bodied, lush style.
It could easily be mistaken for a good-sized Pinot
Noir. Enjoy it over the next 3-5 years. This is an
outstanding value.

Barranc dels Closos 2001
Alluring, with roasted fruit, wild herb, smoke
and spice. Balanced, but shows a traditional, almost
rustic character that will appeal to those who prefer
character to polish. Drink now through 2010.

Barranc dels Closos 2000
The Barranc dels Clossos is a blend of 80%
Grenache and 20% Carignan that has been aged for 3
months in French oak. The deep ruby-colored 2000 Barranc
dels Clossos exhibits a sweet nose of black cherries.
Medium-bodied, fresh, and pure, this Burgundian-styled
Spanish red is best drunk over the next 1-3 years.
This is an outstanding value.
