This vineyard of nine hectares, enclosed by dry stone walls is located at La Livinière in the Minervois, at an altitude of 220 metres. Carignan, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache are cultivated using biodynamic methods, using only horse traction for work between the rows. The grapes are entirely hand-picked. “Clos dOra is the outcome of a slow-maturing project. It was born of a spiritual journey and an irresistible desire to produce an exceptional wine at this mysterious and unspoiled spot. I wish you to drink this wine with awareness and let yourself be guided by the power of its message: Paix Amour Harmonie”, Gérard Bertrand

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
