Tasting Notes

Mineral, slate-driven notes sit alongside vivid red fruit like pomegranate, cherry and plum, with earthy hints of leather. Firm, grippy tannins and peppery lift give it a rustic, structured finish that opens up with food.

Food Paring

Pair with grilled steak, lamb chops, or roasted pork to soften tannins and amplify the wine’s fruit. It also works well with cured meats, olive tapenade, and aged Manchego.

Professional Reviews

93 Wine Enthusiast

"An elegant bouquet of dried cherries and rose petal leads to flavors of black cherry, Mission fig, licorice, dried thyme and a touch of caramel set into a layer of polished tannins. There is a soft whiff of flinty smoke that endures into the smooth finish"

Region Information

Priorat is one of Spain’s most prestigious wine regions, known for powerful, age‑worthy red wines made primarily from Garnacha and Cariñena. Steep vineyard slopes, low yields, and distinctive llicorella slate soils contribute to intensely concentrated wines with depth and structure. Priorat wines are recognized for complexity, richness, and strong terroir expression.

Spain has the largest vineyard area in the world and a winemaking history that spans thousands of years. It is known for regions such as Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Priorat, which produce distinctive red wines. Spain is also famous for fortified wines like Sherry and sparkling Cava. Modern investments and techniques have elevated quality while preserving regional identity.
