MONTECRISTO Magazine: Priorat, Spain

Food and Drink

Priorat, Spain

Where wine is priority.

MONTECRISTO: Going Grenache

Food and Drink

Going Grenache

Why not try something different? Grenache is the world’s fourth most widely planted grape used to make red wine.

MONTECRISTO: Mencia

Food and Drink

Mencia’s Modern Pilgrimage

Ancient grape.

Famed Priorat wine grower Alvaro Palacios and his nephew, Ricardo Perez Palacios, have been instrumental in shining a light on Bierzo, Spain, and in particular, the idiosyncratic mencia grape that is the star of the region’s production.
