The winery lies in the tiny village of Porerra, in southern Catalonia, in the highly-acclaimed D.o.q. Priorat. Here, the magnificent century-old vineyard estates of Vall Llach are home to 60- to 90-year-old Cari\u00f1ena and Garnacha vines.\r\nOld vines naturally produce low yields, and Vall Llach reduces yields even further through careful vineyard management for densely concentrated wines. Vineyards climb steep slate hillsides, receiving optimum sun exposure and beneficial water deprivation, further concentrating the fruit. Newer plantings of Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah add complexity to the old-vine character, and the resulting wines \u2013 Vall Llach, Idus, and Embruix \u2013 have received high critical acclaim. |
