The 2006 GV5, a blend of 77% Carinena, 15% Garnacha, and 8% Syrah, is similarly styled but just a bit more compact and structured. Nevertheless, it too is an outstanding Priorat. (JM)

(75% carinena, 15% garnatxa and 10% cabernet sauvignon) Deep ruby. Pungent cherry and dark berry liqueur aromas are complicated by intriguing mineral, floral and smoked meat qualities. Velvety on entry, then picks up firm tannins, which frame the succulent raspberry and cassis flavors. A rich and youthful wine with excellent finishing lift and lingering cherry skin bitterness. This doesn't want to let up. (JR)

Notes

Gratavinum began in 2003 when the Cusiné family of Parés Baltà moved into Priorat’s steep llicorella terrain, establishing organically and biodynamically farmed parcels around Gratallops and Poboleda. The estate works mainly with old-vine Garnatxa and Cariñena, alongside small plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, all dry-farmed on slate terraces that force deep rooting and yield concentrated fruit. GV5 is the flagship Priorat bottling, built around the region’s traditional red varieties with Cariñena playing a central role. Winemaking follows a clean, low-intervention approach aimed at preserving fruit and site character, supported by Demeter-certified biodynamic practices since 2012.
