Fort Cop de Ma Description
A blend of Garnacha and Carignan
The Qualified Designation of Origin Priorat is one of the world’s most prestigious wine-producing regions. It is unique. It is sublime. It is pure magic. DOQ Priorat is located in the centre of Catalonia, in an unpopulated and inhospitable area. The vines grow in poor, rocky soils. They are planted on mountain slopes, in terraces at an altitude of between 100 and 700 meters above sea level. Most of the land in Priorat is composed of silica slate, known by the locals as “llicorella”, and it is the llicorella that gives Priorat wines their unique character. Average production per vine is often less than 1 kg, and this confers excellent properties upon the grapes, which become pure gold in the hands of a good winemaker.
Food Pairing: We recommend to serve it accompanying meats, roasts, stews, mushrooms and blue cheeses.
Vinous Media: 90 Points
Lurid ruby. Lively cherry and red berries on the nose, along with a hint of candied flowers and building spiciness. Fresh and focused on the palate, offering appealingly sweet black raspberry and cherry flavors that display good clarity and a refreshingly light touch. Discreet tannins lend shape to a long finish that shows a touch of jamminess.
