Clos Erasmus
Gratallops, Priorat | Spain
Clos Erasmus is a relatively young property, born
in an afternoon with the purchase of some old vines of Garnacha by
Daphne Glorian, who happened to be in the area visiting some
friends. Although she had no intention of purchasing such a plot or
starting a winery, her friends (Alvaro Palacios and Rene Barbier)
convinced her that amazing wines could be produced here if given the
right attention. They were right. Organically grown since the
beginning of the winery (1989), the grapes will be farmed
biodynamically starting in 2005.
