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 the 2008 clos de l’obac is composed of 35% cabernet sauvignon, 35% garnacha, with the balance syrah, merlot, and carinena aged 14 months in new french oak before bottling without filtration. it reveals a deeper color along with an inviting bouquet of pain grille, mineral, asian spices, incense, blackberry, and plum. round and smooth on the palate, this is a surprisingly forward effort that can be approached now, although it should easily last through 2020.
