Frequently Asked Questions about Clos Galena
Why decant these wines?
Due to the high phenolic concentration of the wine and its prolonged stay in oak barrels, decanting for 30 to 60 minutes allows the wine to oxygenate, soften its tannins, and release its entire aromatic network before serving.
What is the ideal serving temperature?
It is recommended to serve Clos Galena reds at a temperature between 16 °C and 18 °C to appreciate the fullness of their fruit and balsamic balance without the alcohol predominating.
Do they have aging potential?
Yes, thanks to the excellent acidity of the Priorat soils and their carefully crafted structure, these labels can be optimally stored in a cellar for 10 to 15 years, evolving towards complex tertiary notes.
