Merchant's description

Clos Erasmus 1998 is a mature, full-bodied red wine sourced from three small vineyards in Gratallops, in the Priorat appellation. This is a wine that exemplifies the potential of this historic region. Founded by Daphne Glorian in 1988, the Clos Erasmus estate harnesses a unique terroir marked by its steep, terraced vineyards. This vintage is predominantly comprised of Garnacha and Syrah. A deep, opaque red hue gives way to a complex bouquet of ripe black fruit, violets and subtle mineral notes.
