A superb vineyard site, with classic "llicorella" soil, in the famous Gratallops zone of the Priorat appellation - close neightbours include Clos Mogador, Clos Martinet, L'Ermita and Clos Erasmus. The property was acquired in October 1997 by Christopher Cannan of Europvin on the recommendation of René Barbier, owner of the renown Clos Mogador estate and founder of the "new wave" Priorat movement during the late 1980's. An initial purchase of about 10ha of abandoned terraces was followed by a further acquisition in 2000 to complete the 17ha estate. From the original vineyard a small plot of old Carignan vines was saved. The remainder was replanted with Grenache, Syrah, a very small quantity of Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvedre and Viognier.
