"Made by Combier, Fischer, Gerin!"

A powerful combination for this Priorat pleasure! The work of 3 talented French winemakers, Laurent Combier, Jean-Michel Gerin and Peter Fischer, this wine takes us to the heart of the Catalan hills. Immerse yourself in the depth of its aromatics, where fresh red fruit dominates over spices and vanilla. This cuvée is soft and silky with great character and power, filling your mouth with its minerality and fruitiness. A Priorat for everyone, and one that will satisfy even the most expert palates.
