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.


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: Destemming

Action consisting in separating the grapes from the stalk before vinification. The stalk, the woody part of the bunch, may give the wine an unpleasant vegetal character.
