The wine region of Montsant
Catalan ring encircling the Priorat (Tarragona): signature Garnacha and Cariñena as king reds — concentrated and sunny with notes of ripe black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant, plum), garrigue, Mediterranean herbs, liquorice and a mineral touch, fleshy tannins and a moreish finish, more accessible and fruity than Priorat. Syrah and Cabernet as backup. A few whites (Garnacha Blanca, Macabeu). DO (2001), schists ("llicorella") and clay-limestones, Mediterranean-continental climate.
The wine region of Catalogne
Cradle of Cava (~95% of Spanish output, traditional method): Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada trilogy, fine fruity bubble. Quality peak in Priorat DOCa: dense, mineral reds on llicorella (schist), old-vine Garnacha and Cariñena with black fruit, garrigue notes, firm tannins. Also Penedès, fleshy Montsant, sunny Empordà, Costers del Segre. Mediterranean.
The word of the wine: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
