The region has the coveted DOCa designation..
Currently, the region holds the coveted "Denominación de Origen Calificada" designation, which in Spain is only shared with Rioja.
The Priorat Denomination of Origin Calificada is a small mountainous region located in the province of Tarragona. The Montsant mountain range delimits it to the north, to the west is the La Figuera range, to the east the Molló range, and to the south, the territory opens following the Siurana River downstream towards the Ebro. The Siurana River and its tributaries are the main geographical artery of the area, creating a series of valleys and small plains thanks to the geological sinuosity of the mountains and slopes. According to Catalonia's legislation on regional administrative division, the DOCa Priorat territory falls within a larger administrative delimitation known as the "Comarca del Priorat," which also includes a part of the territory that is not part of the viticultural Priorat.
The Priorat Denomination of Origin Calificada has an area of 17,629 hectares, of which 2,163.97 are planted with vines and cultivated by 513 viticulturists. Administratively, 9 municipalities are part of the DOCa Priorat: Bellmunt del Priorat, Gratallops, El Lloar, El Molar, La Morera de Montsant (which includes the town of Scala Dei), Poboleda, Porrera, Torroja del Priorat, La Vilella Alta, and La Vilella Baixa. Additionally, on the limits of the DOQ Priorat, the northern part of the Falset municipality (the Masos de Falset area) and the eastern part of the El Molar municipality (Les Solanes del Molar) are also included. La Morera de Montsant, Scala Dei, Gratallops, Torroja del Priorat, Porrera, and Poboleda were formerly part of the Priorat of the Carthusian Monastery of Scala Dei. The rest were included in the designation of origin delimitation made in 1932, shaping the current territory of the DOCa Priorat. As a
