#76 Vinous Top 100 of 2025

Quite simply, this wine is one of the absolute benchmarks for fine Priorat, and a reference in Spain. Sourced from three small vineyards in the Gratallops, this blend of Grenache and Syrah undergoes strict berry selection and is fermented and aged for 20 months in barrels and amphorae. It is all about dense fruit, exotic spice and llicorella minerality, with a freshness and elegance are truly singular, even among the top wines of the appellation.

Clos i Terrasses' 2021 wines are precise and focused, with some vats finishing at almost one-degree alcohol lower than usual. The wines show a tapestry of cracking red fruits and citrus with a delicate but layered texture, perfect balance, and a very long finish.
