Costers del Priorat
Costers del Priorat produces wines from the steep, slate-terraced vineyards of Priorat in Catalunya, Spain's most demanding wine region. The winery focuses on old-vine parcels, drawing from Grenache Blanc, Carignan, and traditional white varieties suited to Priorat's schist soils and continental climate. Blanc de Closos Vinyes Velles, made from old-vine Grenache Blanc, and Clos Cypres Vinyes Velles, a Carignan expression, represent the winery's commitment to single-varietal depth. Blanc de Pissarres blends Garnacha Blanca, Pedro Ximenez, and Macabeo into a textured white. These wines have been assessed by Decanter, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Advocate, reflecting their standing within the region's rigorous quality framework. Priorat demands precision and patience—old vines on extreme terrain yield concentrated, mineral-driven expressions that define the appellation's character.
