Description
Description
Organic Crianza red wine DO Costers del Segre.
Clos Pons Alges is a blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 20% Carignan and is a remarkable representation of the viticulture of Les Garrigues, Lleida. The extreme climatic conditions and low yields of this area are reflected in the wine, which displays an intense ruby-red colour and subtle aromas of ripe fruit. Elegant notes of oak are achieved from aging the wine for nine months in new and first year oak barrels, 80% French and 20% American.
On the palate, Clos Pons Alges is concentrated and powerful, yet round and smooth. It boasts a notable bouquet of red fruit jam, spices, and smoky notes, all resting on a mineral background. Its texture is silky, with a persistent and flavourful finish.
Clos Pons Alges pairs wonderfully with lamb and, in general, all types of medium-intensity white and red meats, as well as creamy cow’s milk cheeses.
Certified organic.

Clos Pons farms 48 hectares of certified organic vineyards in the Costers del Segre DO, south of Lleida, at elevations of 500–700 metres. The extreme continental climate and stony soils of Les Garrigues bring concentration and marked minerality to Garnacha, Tempranillo, Syrah, Macabeo, Albariño and Xarel·lo.
The estate produces deeply fruited reds with supple tannins and fresh, elegant whites where oak is carefully integrated to preserve terroir expression. The range also includes traditional method sparkling wines under the Cava DO, offering fine bubbles and refined freshness.
All wines are EU certified organic and bottled at origin to ensure authenticity and character.
