About Vins Estones winery

Behind the Estones project there are two passionate, curious people with extensive experience: sommelier Sergi Montalà (left) and winemaker Salvi Moliner (right).

Estones was born in 2008 in order to produce quality wines in a sustainable and respectful manner with the environment. The winery works closely with the appellations Montsant –the area surrounding Priorat- and Terra Alta.

Grenache is obtained from a slate soil, 10ha hillside estate located in the municipality of Falset, carignan is sourced from old vineyards around Els Guiamets and white grenache comes from the area of Batea, between 350 and 500 metres of altitude, with a mixture of Mediterranean climate with continental influence that results in a stark contrast between day and night temperatures.

Local rainfall between 300 and 400 millimetres per year, the large number of hours of sunshine, plus northwest cold, dry winds (cierzo) and thermal, refreshing sea winds in the summer, help to maintain healthy grapes during the ripening process.
