About this Wine

Vinyes Domènech is located in the south of the Priorat county (Montsant DO), at an altitude of 450 metres, in a protected natural environment of great beauty and ecological significance. It is a plain surrounded by mountains, pine and holly oak woods, and Mediterranean undergrowth, with a one-of-a-kind landscape. Vinyes Domènech's numerous terroirs range in elevation from 200 to 500 metres above sea level, forming 90 parcels with a broad variety of soils in which Grenache and Carignan grapes reflect the character of each parcel.

Teixar is a living example of how nature understands aromatic complexity like no other. Ripe red fruit, currant, blackberries, and cherries, and those who can wait will be rewarded when it opens and gives us its deep anisettes that play with menthol notes, while the lack of pepper is outlined alongside some liquorice notes and aromatic herbs from the Mediterranean undergrowth, rosemary, and lavender. Its red fruit plays with a range of balsamic notes of the medicinal herbs of our environment and spicy notes, with an acidity and saline touches that melt on the palate.

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
