This is the first wine where they used the recovered ancestral varieties Querol and Garró. It fermented in stainless steel and matured in new 300-liter French barriques and new 1,500-liter oak foudres for six months and then moved to second-use 500-liter barrel and 1,500-liter foudres, where the wine matured for a further 10 months, but the Cariñena and Monastrell had less time in wood. It has 14.22% alcohol and a low pH of 3.35, denoting good freshness. It is very aromatic and floral, expressive, fruit-driven, elegant and quite cool, as the mountains stop the warm winds from the Mediterranean. It has very good freshness. The oak is neatly integrated and folded into the fruit, the tannins are fine, and the wine comes through as balanced and medium-bodied. Really very good, the finest vintage so far and one of the highlights of the tasting. I tasted the earlier vintages and they showed more oak and tannins, and some vintages still need more time.

Cataluña, or Catalonia, is a vibrant and diverse wine region in northeastern Spain, renowned for its wide range of wine styles and microclimates. This region encompasses several Denominaciones de Origen (DOs), including the famous DO Penedès, known for its innovative white and red wines, and DO Priorat, highly acclaimed for its powerful and intense red wines. Catalonia is also the heartland of Cava, the Spanish sparkling wine, primarily produced in the Penedès area.

Catalonia's geography is varied, featuring coastal areas, extensive valleys, and rugged mountains, which contribute to the distinct terroirs found within its boundaries. The Mediterranean climate generally offers warm, dry summers and mild winters, ideal for viticulture, with variations in temperature and rainfall influenced by altitude and proximity to the sea.

The region produces a multitude of wine varieties, with an emphasis on both indigenous and international grape types. Traditional red varieties include Garnacha (Grenache) and Cariñena (Carignan), particularly prominent in Priorat and Montsant, where old vines contribute depth and complexity to the wines. For whites, varieties such as Xarel-lo, Macabeo, and Parellada are prominent, especially in the production of Cava.

Catalonia's wine production is characterized by a blend of tradition and innovation, with many producers experimenting with new techniques and sustainable practices while respecting their heritage. This dynamic approach, combined with the rich cultural history of the region, makes Catalonian wines truly unique and highly sought after in the global wine market.
