If you’re a wine lover, then you’ve no doubt heard about the lovely wine region of Priorat, home of critically acclaimed red wines, thanks to reviews by the New York Times, Robert Parker, Decanter, Tim Atkin and others experienced in wine. But what you may not have known, due to the labeling of the particular Priorat wine you’re enjoying, is that not only are Priorat wines a product of Spain, but Priorat is part of the province of Catalunya.
Among all Spanish communities, Catalonia might be the most mysterious and complex of all. It has everything to enchant all sorts of travelers: if you're into adventure, you have the Pyrenees mountains. If you're into food, you have a rich variety of mar i muntanya (sea and mountain) original dishes. If you want art and architecture, you have Picasso, Dalí, Gaudí and a series of Modernist buildings and creations. And, last but not least, in Catalonia lies one of the richest and most interesting wine regions of the world.
