The Priorat is a region with ancient wine tradition, with wines already famous from as far back as the XIIth Century, well known for its powerful flavour and taste. Nowadays, in the Priorat there are two Denominacions d'Origent, theDOQ Priorat, which is formed by the Historic Priorat territory, and the DO Montsant, a newer DO, however, producing surprisingly good wines.
The Priorat area, with it diverse but unknown wine landscape, is full of hidden and unexpected spots of great beauty, walks between vineyards which pleasure us with an ever changing scenery over the four seasons, full of colours and intensive aromas.
A chance to discover the world of wine, getting to know its landscape close up, in a fun and friendly way, following the footsteps of our farming ancestors along the bridle paths, restored recently by Consell Comarcal del Priorat. All of this, obviously combined with a guided visit and wine tasting in the local cellars, the best way to learn about wine making, its secrets and flavours.
