Wine industry legend, Christopher Cannan purchased the Priorat estate, Clos Figueras in 1997 on the advice of Rene Barbier of Clos Mogador. Situated in Gratallops, considered to be the best wine terroirs in the Priorat DOQa with its combination of unique llcorella soils, climate and elevation giving rise to wines of incredible concentration and balance. The vines at Clos Figueras are close-planted and include 60-80 year old Garnacha and Cariñena vines along with newer plantings of Syrah, Touriga Nacional and Mourvedre. French winemaker Alain Graillot from Crozes-Hermitage has been consulting at the winery since 2009 and in a short period of time the wines of Clos Figueras have become one of the region shining stars.

Carignan wines are typically red wines made primarily from the Carignan grape variety. They are known for their deep color, high tannins, and often rustic character. These wines can exhibit flavors of dark fruits, earthiness, and spice, and their aging potential varies. Carignan is commonly used in blends, especially in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France, but some producers make single-varietal Carignan wines. The wine's characteristics can vary depending on the terroir, and it pairs well with a range of foods, particularly grilled meats and Mediterranean dishes.
