Intense and captivating on the nose with generous fruity richness (strawberry jam, raspberries, and red berries) over a background of Mediterranean undergrowth (rosemary, lavender) and dried fruits (prunes, dates). Warm, with a deliciously velvety body and very fine tannins that extend on the palate with spicy flavours (pepper) to a slightly bitter finish (liquorice, roasted coffee, chocolate). SERVING SUGGESTIONS Pairs very well with game dishes such as roast lamb and grilled vegetables. Slow-cooked recipes with venison, wild boar, and hare are a great match. Try mature sheep cheeses such as Manchego. Serve between 16-18ºC. LEGACY Salmos is born from a beautiful and hidden land. The vineyards, planted on steep schist slopes (licorella stone), are subjected to strong temperature changes between night and day. These natural variations contribute to the charm of this wine. Salmos is a tribute to the Carthusian monks who planted the first vines in Priorat. A wine that preserves the mysterious heritage of ancient times and wise men. TERROIR Soil Soils developed from Carboniferous (Palaeozoic) slates are characterised by being shallow, with rapid drainage and a low water retention capacity. These soils on steep slopes are responsible for the typicity of the wines from Priorat. Weather conditions The year 2021 was drier than usual, but it started with a heavy snowfall that replenished the groundwater layers. The rest of the year saw a lot of irregularity in rainfall. The summer rains favoured the good development of the grape, and the rains in September slightly affected the start of the harvest. On the other hand, 2021 experienced normal temperatures, although a warmer February than usual advanced the budding, which was later slowed down by cooler temperatures during the spring.
