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: Vatting

After five to eight days of alcoholic fermentation, it is possible to prolong the maceration in order to extract the maximum amount of matter from the marc. The wines obtained in this way are rich and full-bodied, and in principle are intended for laying down.
