l'escarpat 2022 (by guillem pastrana, clos de l'obac)
Reference: 106375Stock: 6 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
at the end of the 1970s, the married couple formed by the tarragona journalist carles pastrana and the barcelona oenologist mariona jarque embarked on the adventure of a lifetime, dedicating their professional and family future to the project of recovering priorat wines and making them known internationally. thirty years later, together with her two children, guillem and iona -who represent the essential future of this story-, they have consolidated a project that is already known and recognised all over the world. in 1979, carles pastrana and mariona jarque revived the family winemaking tradition and embarked on a long adventure to save the ancient carthusian wines in the heart of the lands that were once under the rule of the priors of scala dei, a monastery located in the catalan region of el priorat. we can say that this domain remains the most regular and captivating domain in the region strength, elegance and depth, this is how this white wine for aging is summarized. it is made with cartoixá (synonymy of xarel.lo) and macabeo, and is later fermented and aged in french oak. the low production used to make this wine allows a perfect control of the elaboration process to obtain complexity and a powerful structure in the mouth. l’escarpat is a white wine made from grapes selected from the vineyards of the mas d’en bruno property (torroja del priorat) where the clos de l’obac winery cultivates the ancestral varietals of macabeu and xarel·lo. this is a white wine of maximum expression and finesse, made and aged in french oack cascs for a period of 5 months. given its scarcity, 600 bottles per year, it is distributed by the “quota” system. the 2022 vintage was characterized by an early harvest, which gives this wine an unusual acidity for a priorat white. l’escarpat has a bright ivory color; the nose denotes subtle floral aromas with a cithyrical ending; in the mouth unctuous with a high but at the same time integrated tannicity.
