The Priorat vineyard

We’ve entered the district of Priorat, home to the famous wines of the D.O. Montsant and the D.O.Q. Priorat, driving on a road overlooking Montsant. The first light of day tints the crest of the rocky massif red. There are many activities available in Priorat to discover the thrilling world of wine and its production. We have decided to start with the historical side and stop at the Falset-Marçà cooperative, another of modernist cellar like those visited the previous day. As we wait for the guide to start the visit, Blai, a “worker”, introduces himself and gives us a funny explanation of the wine making process. From Falset we embark on a journey along one of the most spectacular roads in the districts of the Costa Daurada with views of the terraces of the Priorat vineyard and the villages of Gratallops, La Vilella Alta and La Vilella Baixa, among others. We save some villages that deserve their own visit and require a short detour from the route for the next trip, such as Porrera, Torroja del Priorat or Cabacés.
