El Cel is the most select wine from Mervm Priorati, made in the D.O.Ca. Priorat with grapes that have slowly ripened in the vineyard. With a score of 97 from Decanter and 93 from Wine Spectator, this red wine is an exclusive treasure full of personality and flavor.
El Cel (sky in Spanish) presents itself as the most select wine from Mervm Priorati, a winery with a great reputation in the Denomination of Origin Qualified Priorat, Spain. This 2020 vintage is the result of a manual harvest, characterized by grapes that have grown in rocky and very poor soils, contributing to its complexity. The wine is made from a blend of 30% Garnacha negra, 15% Cariñena, 30% Syrah, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, with an alcohol content of 15.5% vol. Its character evolves over time, offering intense aromas of blueberries, dark fruits, and a hint of fine pastry on the nose. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with notes of berries and smooth chocolate that develop thanks to aging in French oak barrels for 14 to 18 months. This wine pairs perfectly with dishes like confit hare or aged cheeses, making El Cel 2020 a sublime choice. However, production has been limited and is described as excellent, highlighting the winery's effort to maintain high quality standards in each bottle.
