Clos Moagador’s 2008 Manyetes is composed of 70% Carinena, 25% Garnacha, and 5% Syrah. Dark ruby red in color, it sports an alluring nose of exotic spices, incense, wood smoke, black cherry, and plum. On the palate it displays an elegant personality with layered, succulent fruit. Impeccably balanced with a seamless finish, this relatively forward Priorat will benefit from 1-2 years of cellaring but can be approached now.
