In 1989, Alvaro Palacios as a member of the “Gang of Five” made his first wine and that group of 5 producers put the Priorat on the international wine world map.
From the very beginning, Alvaro was strict about his viticultural practices following organic methods and using mules. Over time as he learned more and more about the region, its geography and history he began to trust in the wisdom on the monks and their methods and the varieties they planted. The heritage of these clones of Garnacha, Carinyena and some white grapes mixed in became a critical element in expressing this terroir. While power is a part of the Priorat…so too is a sense of elegance or finesse.
This is a blend of 45% Garnacha, 17% Samso, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 9% Syrah, 6% white grapes aged 4-6 months in used barrels.
