Scala Dei Vi Ranci – Solera Estática 1982
This wine shows us one of the traditions that have been hidden for a long time: rancid, good or digestive wines. Of this first edition, only 594 bottles of 0.5l are available exclusively in our winery shop and here in the online wine store. From the 33 original barrels, 9 litres were extracted from each one. One of these butts was used to refill the others to preserve the static solera.

After making the 100% Grenache wine it was passed into 300 litre barrels to undergo an oxidative ageing which also serves to concentrate the alcohol in the wine. The Solera has never been refilled, staying static since 1982, giving us a wine that for over 30 years has been growing into a great Priorat Vi Ranci.
Very fine, fresh and profound with notes of toasted hazelnuts and almonds, sweet aromas but with a dry mouthfeel. Perfect with desserts or as an aperitif.
