Priorat wines
Located in the northeast of Spain, Priorat is a small wine region within the vastness of Catalonia. Priorat has 1800 hectares of vines which makes it the smallest Catalan DO (Denominación de Origen, equivalent to the French AOC). It has gained prestige within its country because it is one of the three Spanish wine-growing areas, along with Cava and Rioja, to have the honor of receiving the title of DOCa (Denominación de Origen Calificada), proof that the Wine Region of Priorat produces great quality wines.
Its singularity lies in its climate, its orography and its geology. The internationally renowned wines owe much of their character to the region's llicorella black slate soils.
The vineyards rise to altitudes between 100 and 700 meters, the highest are installed in terraces on steep slopes. Priorat is one of the hottest and driest places in the country, despite its proximity to the Mediterranean Sea.
