Priorat
made of a brown slate mixed together with rocks. Mountains surround
the area and the vines are tended by hand.
Notable Facts
The red wines here are based on Garnacha,
and produce inky wine with intense fruit flavors of blackberry and
plums, not to mention a required minimum of .% alcohol. The secondary
grape of the region is Carinena (Carignan in France). This grape has lost favor in most parts of the world due to its
rustic nature,
but here in Priorat it's a welcome structural addition to the Garnacha based wines.
