Description

Context Perched atop a limestone outcrop, Siurana is a medieval village that overlooks the eponymous reservoir in the Priorat region, a renowned wine-producing area known for its slate soils called licorella. The terraced vineyards cling to steep, rugged terrain, imparting a distinct mineral character to the region’s wines—especially Garnacha and Cariñena, the two signature grape varieties of the zone.

The Experience Begin your journey walking through Siurana’s cobbled streets and scenic viewpoints, where the dry scent of Mediterranean garriga drifts on the breeze. Then, at Cellers Scala Dei—the oldest winery in the Priorat—explore the vineyards and the production cellar. The guided tasting highlights wines with depth and pronounced mineral notes, while children enjoy specially crafted non-alcoholic beverages, ensuring full family participation in a seamless, inclusive atmosphere.

For Whom Perfect for families with children aged 5 and up who wish to enjoy a cultural and culinary outing together. Also suitable for wine enthusiasts interested in terroir and local grape varieties. Not recommended for visitors with limited mobility due to uneven terrain.

Local Context Cellers Scala Dei was established in the 12th century and remains a key cultural and historical landmark in the region. Guides share the region’s winemaking heritage and the deep connection between viticulture, landscape, and community, shaped over centuries of tradition.
