Its landscapes, the aromas of its fields, the Tramontana that marks the character of its people… Produced using the best from each of our estates, the Gran Claustro brings together the best sensation of this beautiful land, confirming the old adage that "a wine is the landscape of a country concentrated in a wine glass". This wine is produced using only selected grapes from the best harvests, which are always hand picked.
