Roquers de Porrera is an emblematic wine from the Priorat region, in Catalonia, Spain. Produced by the Cims de Porrera winery, this wine stands out for its complexity and depth, reflecting the unique characteristics of its terroir. The Priorat region is known for its llicorella (slate) soil, which contributes significantly to the minerality and structure of the wines from this area.
This wine is a blend, typically composed of native varieties such as Cariñena (Carignan) and Grenache (Grenache), which are the predominant grapes in the region. Cariñena provides vibrant acidity and firm tannins, while Grenache adds richness and ripe fruit. This combination gives rise to a balanced and robust wine, with great aging capacity.
Roquers de Porrera presents a deep and intense red color in the glass, indicating its concentration and aging potential. On the nose, it offers a wide range of aromas, from black fruits such as blackberries and plums, to spicy notes of black pepper and cloves. You can also detect nuances of licorice, cocoa and a mineral touch characteristic of the slate floor.
In the mouth, this wine is powerful and structured, with an excellent integration of its components. The tannins are firm but well polished, and the acidity provides freshness and balance. The flavors follow the aromatic profile, with ripe fruits, spices and a minerality that provides depth and complexity. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and sophistication.
The production of Roquers de Porrera involves careful selection of grapes and meticulous vinification. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in French oak barrels, which can last between 12 and 18 months, depending on the vintage. This oak aging adds layers of complexity and softens the tannins, contributing to the refined character of the wine.
Roquers de Porrera is an ideal wine to accompany red meat dishes, game, stews and cured cheeses. Its robust character and complexity make it an excellent option for special moments and for those who appreciate the great wines of Priorat.
