Insider tip
Request a tasting agenda that prioritizes old-vine Garnacha producers (Clos Mogador, Alvaro Palacios disciples) and avoid the Cariñena-heavy stations—Priorat's reputation rests on its ancient Garnacha. Stay in Falset proper and ask your accommodation to connect you with producers offering pre-festival barrel tastings; these are where you find the pre-release gems.
