Wines of Catalunya: DOQ Priorat

Private, all access visit and tasting in three of Priorat’s exclusive cellars paired with a genuine culinary experience.

The Priorat ‘viñedos’ are considered to be some of the oldest and richest of the Spanish vines.  Thanks to the limited rain, high filtration and mineral-rich soil, wines from the Priorat are renowned for their distinct, consistent character.  These full-bodied wines derived from the black slate-laden soil have found their way to the top ratings of the world’s leading wine industry journals.  The scenery you’ll enjoy while winding through the steep hills and river canyons are unparalleled and makes it easy to appreciate what these old and young generation vintners have crafted.

An impressive wide and balanced variety of full-bodied wines not to be missed
