PRIORAT
THE CELLAR
The Priorat wine tradition is transferred to our winery in Poboleda to offer wines that convey the best of the Priorat Qualified Designation of Origin. A denomination with an area of 1,930 hectares of vineyards and with a long history in the world of wine, with more than 600 wine-growing families.
AND IT IS THAT IN THIS WINERY, THE GOOD TREATMENT OF THE RAW MATERIAL IS FUNDAMENTAL, ALWAYS FOLLOWING THE HIGHEST STANDARDS WITHIN THE WORLD OF WINE, SOMETHING THAT IS APPRECIATED IN EVERYTHING WE DO.
El Priorat is the place where our wines: Omus and Shirus take on that strength and character that defines them so well. It is where, through the separation of the varieties, the perfect fermentation and the optimal finish are achieved.
THE VINEYARDS
In the surroundings of the town of Poboleda are our vineyards of La Pleta and Les Foreses, two vineyards that are part of the Priorat territory and deserve a denomination like this.
THE VARIETIES ARE GROWN ON THESE TWO ESTATES: GARNACHA, SYRAH, CARIÑENA, CABERNET SAUVIGNON AND MERLOT. WITH STRAINS UP TO 30 YEARS OLD, THEY PROVIDE MATURITY AND STRUCTURE TO BOTH OMUS AND SHIRUS.
Its characteristic terrain of slate stone, also known as llicorella, distributed in terraces and its vines with history make us feel very proud of these vineyards.
THE VILLAGE OF POBOLEDA
Poboleda, a town with moderate slopes and a crossing point for the Siurana River with no more than 370 inhabitants and 14 square kilometers, rises from an unparalleled spot such as Piorat.
THE MEANING OF ITS NAME, “POPLAR FOREST”, SAYS A LOT ABOUT WHAT POBOLEDA IS: A PLACE SURROUNDED BY A PARTICULAR VEGETATION.
Poboleda is a small town founded in 1170 that awaits many stories and where we can contemplate historical architecture from the 18th and 19th centuries. A place to disconnect and enjoy.
