3rd fair of cheese and Priorat wines at Clos Figueras

02 Apr 3rd fair of cheese and Priorat wines at Clos Figueras

The Clos Figueras winery (Gratallops, DOQ Priorat) is preparing the 3rd edition of the Cheese and Priorat Wine Show. The fair will be taking place this Sunday, 10 April, 2016, and is going to be slightly different from the 2nd fair of Catalan cheeses and Priorat wines (2015). Well, yes, there will be stalls for wine makers and cheese farmers, so you’ll be able to enjoy taging these products while walking and browsing around. There are going to be wines from our county’s both wine appellations: DOQ Priorat and DO Montsant. According to Clos Figueras, cheeses are arriving from such counties as l’Alt Urgell, Osona, la Noguera, la Ribera d’Ebre and el Baix Camp. Quite a smorgasbord to choose from… However, there’s going to be a novelty: the idea, in fact, is to bring closer wines and cheeses, so the plan is to propose pairings. This means that, at the fair, there will be a special counter where attendants will be able tot taste wine-and-cheese pairings carefully prepared by the cheese-focussed sommelier Carles Mira.

Which Celler Devinssi wines will you be tasting at the 3rd fair? This year we’re featuring two of our reds:

• Mas de les Valls 2013
• Cupatge 2014

Carles Mira has already prepared the matches between the cheeses and our wines. We don’t know which ones, this is a secret to be revealed this Sunday. Would you like to try it? So come over and taste!

You will also be able to learn about our grapevine adopter’s club: how to become our vines’ sponsor, what activities are planned for our grapevine adopters and which wines are included in our sponsorship formulas.

Priorat is looking forward to welcoming you this Sunday, 10 April, from 10am to 2pm. To learn more about the wine-and-cheese fair, please contact Clos Figueras.
