Devinssi is a small artisan winery in the old quarter of Gratallops, on Carrer dels Masets, within the DOQ Priorat. The winery organises the visits itself, each tailored, and all begin outside, in a vineyard with views over the village, before you sit down to taste.
A trip to the vineyard with Gratallops at your feet
The first part is the outing to the vineyard. From there you can see Gratallops, the Montsant range, the hermitage and the south-west of the region. Then you taste in the winery's tasting room. Allow between an hour and a half and two hours for the two parts: the house warns that it depends on how many questions you ask.
Senzilla, Pica-pica or Rocapoll
All are priced per person and require a minimum of two:
- Senzilla, €20: vineyard and tasting. It can be booked in a bilingual version or in English only.
- Pica-pica, €35: vineyard and tasting with nibbles of local produce, which according to the website include fuet, ham, cheese, Arbequina olives, bread with tomato and oil, and nuts. There is a vegetarian and vegan version.
- Rocapoll, €50: the tasting includes the house Rocapoll wine, with nibbles.
The sunset one, Capvespre, is paused until further notice.
Five languages and two days' notice
They host in Catalan, Spanish, English, French and Mandarin Chinese; in Mandarin there is a €30 supplement per group. Book on their booking page at least two days ahead, though they sometimes make exceptions. For times that don't appear in the calendar or for large groups, use only a WhatsApp text message to 608 783 094: the winery asks that you don't call or send photos. The email is [email protected]. The website says nothing about children or dogs.
Where to meet
The meeting point is the car park opposite the Clos Figueras restaurant, at the entrance to Gratallops. Leave your car there: the winery asks you not to drive into or across the village, whose streets are narrow. From the Hotel Cal Llop, on Carrer de Dalt, it is a walk downhill.
What else they have
In the middle of the village they have a shop with their full DOQ Priorat range and two family projects from outside the region: an organic cava and an Albariño from Rías Baixas. They also rent rooms in Gratallops, sell gift vouchers and run a club for adopting a vine.
It is the first stop on the plan A day of wineries in Gratallops, which continues with the tasting and Baño de Viñas at Buil & Giné, ten minutes away by car.

- Park at the entrance The meeting point is already outside the old quarter; don't drive into Gratallops.
- Write, don't call For special times, send a WhatsApp message; the winery doesn't take calls that way.
- Use it to start the day The Senzilla is short and leaves room for another winery before lunch.
