Familia Torres - Secret Del Priorat 2019 (750ml)
Priorat is a small yet singular wine region located in the province of Tarragona at the foot of the Sierra del Montsant. The region comprises towns and villages that were once under the dominion of the Carthusian Monastery of Escaladei. Its singularity resides in its climate, orography, and geology. Our internationally renowned wines owe much of their character to the region’s llicorella black slate soils.
Familia Torres Description
Secret del Priorat reflects the typicity and diversity of this incredible region, a land of small miracles that happen every day, like the flowers on a lone almond tree in the middle of the vineyard. The magical landscape of Priorat brings us this pleasant, delicate wine in a tribute to the local landscape, with its steep slopes and llicorella slate soils, and its valiant winegrowing, where nature prevails above all else.
