Camins del Priorat Red Wine is made with grapes from 101 plots from 10 towns in the Priorat region in Tarragona. It is made with 35% Garnacha, 20% Cariñena, 20% Syrah, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot. It is a charming expression of the character of a region crossed by old mule drivers' roads.

Velvet and mineral, voluptuousness and concentration. A strength that is only possible in the steep vineyards of Priorat. A close beauty and a cosmopolitan and exotic flair.

It has a deep cherry red colour with a violet rim. On the nose it has aromas of ripe red fruits, cocoa and a hint of black liquorice. On the palate it is round and voluptuous with a relevant and sweetened acidity due to sweet ripe fruit. It leaves a fresh feeling and a long aftertaste.

Serving temperature is 16 ºC. It pairs very well with pork, duck and turkey in sauce, as well as with vegetables and mushrooms.

Vineyard and elaboration

The vineyards come from eight different towns: Gratallops, Porrera, Torroja, Les Vilelles, Bellmunt, El Molar, El Lloar and Poboleda.

This is an area with steep slopes and terraces with different levels of exposure located at between 350 and 700 metres above sea level. The vines are between 12 and 40 years old.

The soil is made of slate with a laminar vertical and oblique structure.

Regarding elaboration, the grapes are 100% destemmed and gently crushed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in cement and wood vats, with a maceration period of 20 to 30 days. Malolactic fermentation takes place in wooden vats. Stirring is done.

Winery

Álvaro Palacios, son of Riojan winemakers, has a philosophy and personality closely linked to spirituality, culture and tradition. He arrived in Gratallops in 1989, attracted by the ancestral and mystical landscape of vine cultivation in an environment of centenary vines hanging from impossible slate slopes.
