Terram

The blend of our best grapes

Our vision of Priorat in bottles. A powerful wine that reveals the efforts made to mature it. A complex wine, as it is the result of a blend of four grape varieties that evolve at their own pace until the final blend. A typical Priorat, because this is the kind of wine we want to share. A wine that can be consumed magnificently on the fruit, but which will provide other emotions if you give it time.
