Perinet Garnatxa Priorat DOQ 2017 – Intense and elegant Garnacha from the dramatic terroir of Priorat

Perinet Garnatxa Priorat DOQ 2017 is a characterful and elegant red wine from the famous Priorat region in Catalonia, Spain. Here, among steep terraces, ancient vines and the iconic slate soils – known as “llicorella” – some of Spain’s most concentrated and sought-after wines are created. This wine is a beautiful example of what the Garnatxa grape can achieve when grown in one of the country’s most prestigious wine regions.

It expresses the raw and impressive nature of Priorat with deep fruit, minerality and an elegant structure. Perinet Garnatxa is made for wine lovers who appreciate power, finesse and terroir in perfect balance. The intense fruit combined with silky tannins and lively acidity create a wine that is both powerful and incredibly harmonious.

The grapes for Perinet Garnatxa 2017 are hand-harvested from selected parcels in the vineyard’s steep vineyards. The demanding cultivation in Priorat produces small, concentrated grapes with great aromatic intensity. After a gentle fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine is aged in oak barrels, adding depth, complexity and a well-rounded structure.

The result is a wine with both energy and elegance – a classic Priorat with modern finesse. It’s ideal with hearty dishes, but can also be enjoyed on its own, where its complexity really comes into its own in the glass.
