| This property has been in the family since the 12th century and they have documents relating to vineyards from 1305. Emporda has many similarities both in grape varities, climate and terroir to Roussillon just over the French border. They also share the uncompromising tramontane wind which drys the land and vines meaning little need for treatments. The poor soils consist mainly of meteorized slate which adds a clear mineral edge to the wines and keep yields naturally low. The vineyards are located on the slopes of the Alberes mountains, amongst a variety of wild aromatic plant species such as bay, fennel, thyme, lavender, mint and rosemary, which are responsible for the floral, spicy and mineral aromas found in the wines. The wines are beautifully made and quite unique. |
