This wine offers an elegant and complex aromatic profile, dominated by spicy and herbaceous notes, accompanied by delicate hints of chamomile and other aromatic herbs. On the palate, it is balanced and precise, with a pronounced, stony minerality and a restrained style that culminates in a dry finish. Its freshness, energy, and vibrancy combine with a slightly saline finish and a subtle bitter touch that adds depth. It stands out for its great delicacy, finesse, and richness of nuances.
Clos Mogador Nelin 2018 is a dry white wine produced by Clos Mogador in the prestigious DOQ Priorat. This exclusive wine originates from a 20-hectare estate where biodiversity plays a fundamental role, with century-old vines coexisting with others of varying ages in an environment cultivated with the utmost respect for nature and the balance of the ecosystem.
Nelin 2018 represents Clos Mogador's unique vision of great white wines from Priorat. Its blend is led by Garnacha Blanca and is made through spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, accompanied by brief contact with the skins to enhance its complexity and structure. Aging takes place slowly using various materials, such as oak, concrete, clay, and stainless steel, seeking to express the personality of the vineyard and terroir with the utmost fidelity.
In this vintage, the winery continues its commitment to native varieties, incorporating Trepat Blanc and Cartoixà—the traditional name for Xarel·lo in the region—gradually replacing the French varieties. Aging takes place exclusively in large 2.200-liter oak foudres, completely foregoing conventional barrels to preserve the purity of the fruit and the wine's identity.
The production of Clos Mogador Nelin 2018 was limited to just 7.500 bottles, bottled in June 2020, making this a very limited-production white wine with great personality. A superb choice for those who wish to buy wine online and enjoy an elegant, complex wine with extraordinary aging potential.
