The wine's story:

Com Tu is 100% Garnatxa from La Figuera in the Montsant appellation, in the higher part of the wider Priorat geographical region. The original idea came from Anderson Barbier, who also named the wine; today the project is developed jointly by the brothers René and Christian Barbier Meyer. The grapes come from three old-vine plots, about 3 hectares in all at 580–600 metres on red clay and limestone.

The Barbier family's winery is Clos Mogador in Gratallops; Com Tu is their wine from the neighbouring Montsant appellation, with a drawing of La Figuera on the label.

Winemaking:

100% Garnatxa negra. Fermentation starts with native yeasts and 40% of the grapes are fermented uncrushed. The wine aged for a year in an old 4,500-litre oak cask and then for 8 months in concrete.

Tasting notes:

A concentrated yet fresh Garnatxa with round tannins. René Barbier Meyer describes Com Tu 2023 as concentrated but pleasantly balanced, with round tannins and surprising liveliness. The Dutch shop Grand Cru Wijnen notes a concentrated yet refined structure, fresh tension and striking vibrancy.

Food pairing:

Duck breast – Garnatxa's round tannins and freshness complement the richness of duck. Lamb with herbs; grilled pork; aged sheep's cheese.

The story of Clos Mogador began in 1979, when René Barbier Sr. bought land in Gratallops – an area on the edge of oblivion whose exceptional potential he saw before anyone else. Llicorella slate, steep terraces and an extreme climate gave the wines a unique character, and Barbier was convinced that the vines here could produce world-class wines. Today the winery is run by his son René Barbier Jr. and Isabelle Meyer, who follow the same principles: organic and biodynamic viticulture and minimal intervention in the cellar. Their aim is to express the terroir in its purest form. Clos Mogador was the first Priorat wine to receive Vi de Finca status, confirming its uniqueness and consistent excellence. The vines grow on steep slate terraces, where the difficult conditions give a small but exceptionally concentrated crop. The wines ferment with natural yeasts and age in oak barrels, concrete tanks and amphorae to bring out the true character of Priorat.
