Harvest 2011 in the Priorat

Posted on Tuesday September 6th, 2011 by AJ

We have all the white (Viognier, Garnacha Blanca and Chenin Blanc) in the cellar and the Syrah as well! This year the harvest is much earlier than other years, at least 10 days. The grape is very healthy, which makes us believe that 2011 will be a great vintage.
