Gratavinum Silvestris 2020 captures the essence of Priorat: ripe fruit, Mediterranean herbaceous notes, and structure from a unique wine-growing region.
In Priorat, steep slopes, Mediterranean heat, and the famous slate soils define the landscape. Locally, this soil is called “llicorella.” Gratavinum Silvestris 2020 comes from this distinctive wine region and is an interesting choice for anyone looking for a red wine with a clear regional identity.
2020 was an extraordinary year worldwide, but in the vineyards of Priorat, the rhythm of the seasons remained the defining factor. For Gratavinum, this Silvestris begins with that year’s grape harvest. The steep slopes and slate-rich soils give the wine its regional character; without harvest data, it is impossible to determine the exact weather conditions that influenced this cuvée.
Ripe dark fruit, Mediterranean herbs, and a robust structure are characteristic of many red Priorat wines. The combination of concentration and freshness determines whether such a wine remains balanced when served with a meal. The exact aromas may change as the wine continues to age in the bottle.
Serve this wine with lamb, grilled vegetables, or a slow-cooked dish. A little aeration can help open up the aromas, but taste it first to determine what the bottle needs. If you’d like to get to know the producer better, compare this Silvestris with the 2011 Gratavinum GV5 to discover two different expressions of Priorat.
