SP0034.jpg

Origen pays homage to the Catalonian monks and their winemaking prowess. It emulates the wines made and drunk by monks who lived in the Cistercian monasteries in the 14th century. A powerful and balanced wine with aromas of sweet black fruits, blueberries and black currants. The palate is soft and round with a pleasing velvety consistency. This wine is made from 20 and 30 year old vines planted in vineyards located around the Cistercian monasteries, between 400 and 500 meters above sea level, next to the Clos Montblanc winery.

Clos Mont-Blanc

The Clos Montblanc winery is located in Barbera de la Conca, very close to two symbolic locations in the history of Catalonia, the fortified town of Montblanc and the Monastery of Poblet. It is an area steeped in history and tradition. Here the Cistercian monks settled, nearly a thousand years ago, with their firm goal of finding the way to perfection. Their ethos survives in the hearts of the local people today a nd can be clearly seen in the way in which they go about their daily work. From a geological point of view, it is an area with a rich, well-balanced soil which is grey and limey, full of variations, and has the optimum natural qualities for viniculture. The essence of the Clos Mont Blanc cellar is a pride in the land to which it belongs and a working system based on a thousand-year-old tradition. Clos Mont-Blanc creates wines which have a unique character and a nature and sensitivity of their very own. Clos Mont-Blanc wines obtain their character from indigenous varieties such as Tempranillo or Grenache, together with foreign grapes such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah, in a symbiosis of character and added personality. The white wines blend traditional Macabeo from Spain with Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, ensuring the mix is exactly the right balance.
