It’s a blend of several small vineyards on varied soils, giving you the perfect introduction to Empordà. The nose is incredibly bright and vibrant, with blue fruit and savoury notes, while the palate is juicy, pure and spicy. This reminds me of a good Priorat, at a fraction of the price\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x \u003cstrong\u003eVinyes d'Olivardots Blanc de Gresa 2023\u003c\/strong\u003e - also just like Priorat, there are some absolute gems of white wines to be found here, if you know where to look. This is from White Grenache, Grey Grenache and White Carignan vineyards planted in 1900 - yes you read that right. The vines here are 125 years old! If you like your interesting whites, then give this a go - you won’t be disappointed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x \u003cstrong\u003eVd’O 1 Carinyena 2019\u003c\/strong\u003e - a real treat - a single-vineyard, old-vine Carignan on slate soils - just like the famous llicorella in Priorat. It’s dark, smoky and peppery, with layers of wild herbs, oak and white pepper. Incredible stuff and straight onto the list of potential bottles for the big day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x \u003cstrong\u003eVd’O 2 Carinyena 2019\u003c\/strong\u003e - there are 19 officially-classified Grand Cru vineyards in all of Catalunya, and just one in Empordà. Carlota is the lucky owner of that precious 115 year-old vineyard, and makes this wine from it. Made in the same way as Vd’O 1, but the granite-sandy soils add an extra level of richness and intensity - this is just sensational.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love Priorat or the Languedoc (and who doesn’t) - then you’ll be right at home here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eP.s.
