Llicorella Vitis 60 is pure art. We couldn’t have done it anywhere else but in Priorat, blending grapes from our low-production 60 year old vines. it’s up to you to uncork a bottle and let yourself be enraptured by magical sensations. You’ll feel in heaven.
Tiny and entirely composed of craggy, jagged and deeply terraced vineyards, Priorat is a Catalan wine-producing region that was virtually abandoned until the early 1990s. Its renaissance came with the arrival of one man, René Barbier, who recognized the region’s forgotten potential. He banded with five friends to create five “Clos” in the village of Gratallops. Their aim was to revive some of Priorat’s ancient Carignan vines, as well as plant new—mainly French—varieties. These winemakers were technically skilled, well-trained and locally inspired; not surprisingly their results were a far cry from the few rustic and overly fermented wines already produced.
