Clients will be collected at the Barcelona hotel around 09:00 to travel to the Priorat region (1:45 hours from Barcelona) where we will stop to visit the Scala Dei Monastery founded by the monks of San Bruno. It was the first Monastery in the Spanish Kingdom, and from there the monks went out to create 25 Monasteries all over Spain. The Scala Dei Monastery was built in a plot given by the King Alfonso I el Casto as a present in the XII century. From Scala Dei we will travel to the town of Gratallops, the Priorat´s wine Cathedral, where we can find four of the most important and renowned wineries in the Priorat region. Although the Priorat wines have been produced for centuries, it is only recently in the past decade or so, that these have taken a quantitative leap in quality that now puts them on the forefront of Spanish wines.  

Wineries Visited: Clos de l´Obac, Buil & Giné, Vins la Conreria, Licorella Vin, Celler de Capçanes ( Kosher)
