About Fira del Vi
At this three-day festival, Fira del Vi, you’ll be introduced to the wine culture of this region.
It’s an area that has long been associated with the craftsmanship of producing wine by hand.
Wine tasting is the order of the day and you’ll have many chances to talk to the producers.
It wouldn’t be a festival without fabulous food and great music to accompany all the tastings.
Some events take place in interesting and historically rich locations, such as the former lead mine, Bellmunt del Priorat Mines and Museum.
The international reputation of the wine attracts an international audience
Wine
The two internationally recognised denominations of origin are DOQ Priorat and Monsant.
The steep terrain means that the whole process is done by hand as machines can’t reach the grapevines growing on the 45 degree angled hills.
So the wine is produced by hand as it has been done for centuries.
Crops have been in this area since the 12th Century when the monks of the Scala Monastery started making wine.
The domain of the prior of the abbey covered several neighbouring towns and that is where the name of the area, Priorat, originated.
Montsant
Grenache and carignan are two of the outstanding wines produced here.
Almost half the of the high-quality wine produced today is exported.
DOQ Priorat
Winner of prestigious international awards, the Priorat wines are extremely popular.
The characteristics of the Priorat make the wine produced here unique and exclusive.
It bears the Qualified Designation of Origin which means protective measures are in place to ensure the continued quality of the wine produced.
How to get to Fira del Vi
Falset is a village located on the Iberian Peninsula in Catalonia.
Situated approximately 40 km inland from Tarragona on the coast, drive west on the N420 to reach the village.
From Tarragona, you can also take a train, bus or taxi.
The train station, Marca-Falset, is situated between the villages of Marca and Falset.
Taking the train from Barcelona Sants to Marca-Falset, will take a couple of hours.
More about the region
In addition to wine, the Priorat region in Catalonia is also known for olive oil and hiking through the stunning natural landscape.
Castle, palaces, guided wine tours, olive oil tastings, and stunning scenery are all things you’ll discover here.
The hiking trails in the Natural Park Montsant Mountain Range are well signposted and worth exploring.
Places to stay
Rural hotels and manor houses are dotted throughout this delightful region.
Hotel-Hostal Sport is right in the centre of the village.
Spacious, comfortable rooms, great restaurant with a fabulous wine list (as you would expect when staying in wine country!), ample parking, and free WiFi make this a great choice for your stay in Fastel.
Across the road, the boutique Hotel Restaurant Lotus Priorat, is another superb option in the heart of the village.
