The Perelada estate, an impressive fortress and palace that was previously owned by the Counts of Pereleda and a carmelite monastery, was purchased in 1923 by Miguel Mateu, an active political and cultural ambassador of the time.

Don Miguel revitalized the wine producing tradition of the estate. Records showed that there were vineyards planted in the Medieval period. He turned the estate into his own private cultural centre, building up the collections which would become the castle museum which is today open to the public.

Tasting Notes

This is a youthful and fresh red wine that has lots of ripe fruit and light spice.  The palate is medium bodied and well rounded with flavours of raspberry and pepper.  There is a vein of refreshing acidity and expresiveness that carries onto the finish.  Enjoy this well balanced wine with meat dishes, sausages and casseroles.   

Method

Made from Garnacha grapes grown in an area where the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean converge, a place of two ancient canyons from the 18th century.  The landscape reflects the character of the Empordà Denomacion di Origen; a land of contrasts and cultures, a meeting point of the sea and the mountains.  This is a young wine, made with grapes from vineyards between 20 and 30 years old.  It is lightly oaked.
