The wine region of Priorat

Mythical Catalan terroir, DOCa (Spain's summit alongside Rioja). Powerful, concentrated reds with signature notes of candied black fruits (blackberry, black cherry), graphite, schist, garrigue, cocoa and liquorice, firm tannins and a mineral palate strung by the "llicorella" (black schist and quartz forcing roots down to 20 m). Old vines of Garnacha (roundness) and Cariñena (Samsó, structure). Exceptional ageing.

Cradle of Cava (~95% of Spanish output, traditional method): Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada trilogy, fine fruity bubble.

Also Penedès, fleshy Montsant, sunny Empordà, Costers del Segre. Mediterranean.
