The route
Gratallops is small and steep, and that works in favour of anyone who comes to taste: what matters is on foot or ten minutes away. This plan puts the only car journey before lunch and your bed two streets from the wine bar. In the morning you go out to the vineyard with a small winery in the village; at midday, a long tasting with a walk round the estate and lunch at the top of the winery; in the afternoon, a wine list that has only Priorat, and then to bed.
10:00 · Devinssi. The car stays in the car park opposite the Clos Figueras restaurant, at the entrance to the village; the winery asks you not to bring the car into Gratallops. La Senzilla starts in the vineyard and ends with a tasting, for €20 per person, with a minimum of two and two days' notice. They speak Spanish, Catalan, English and French. If you want something to nibble, the Pica-pica platter costs €35.
12:15 · Buil & Giné. Ten minutes along the La Vilella Baixa road, to kilometre 11.5. Let whoever spat at Devinssi drive. The tasting, with a professional from the house, is five wines, from Joan Giné Blanco to Pleret, in an hour and a half, for €35. Before or after, the Vineyard Bath: a circular walk round the estate with a map on your phone and numbered barrels as information points.
14:00 · Lunch at Amics. You go up to the top of the winery. Chef Marc Pi makes a seasonal menu with local produce and the house wines, with views over the estate. Open at midday every day except Wednesday. The winery also sells the tasting and lunch together, about four hours for €170 for two.
17:30 · To the hotel. Back to Gratallops and the car parked until tomorrow. The Hotel Cal Llop is on Carrer de Dalt, at the top of the village, with ten rooms and a terrace over the vineyards. If you book on its website, breakfast is included.
19:30 · La Boca del Llop. The hotel's wine bar has a list of only Priorat, with many Gratallops wines, by the glass or the bottle, and platters of cold cuts from the Sabaté family of La Vilella Baixa, and Catalan cheeses. It is the last drink of the day and there is no road left.
If you would rather not move the car even once after the first tasting, sleep at the Buil & Giné winery itself: it has three rooms with terraces, one with a kitchen, and swap the afternoon for the Vineyard Bath at sunset. If the Porrera road appeals more, Ferrer Bobet does a vineyard and winery visit with three wines for €50, on the T-740; it is further away, so it works better as the winery for the next morning.
