Join New York Wine Events for a visit with award-winning Gratavinum Winery and discover 3 great wines for the holidays. In the wild and rugged landscape of the Priorat in Spain, lies a dramatic struggle for survival of the vine. A unique atmosphere that captivates nature and winelovers alike. In 2003, Joan and Josep Cusiné together with their wives MaElena Jiménez and Marta Casas (winemakers in Parés Baltà) and the winemaker Jordi Fernandez, started a new and exciting project in the Priorat region.

That was the beginning of Gratavinum whose name comes from the contraction of Gratallops (the name of the village where the winery is located) and Vinum, which means wine in Latin, in homage to the Romans, who introduced the cultivation of vines in the region many centuries ago.

Here are the wines that will be tasted and discussed in this experience:
- Silvestris (named one of the Best Natural Wines in the World by Decanter)
- GV5 (one of the most elegant and mineral wines from the appellation)
- Dolç d’en Piqué (a red Late Harvest from Priorat)
Participants are invited to purchase the wines ahead of time to task along with the winemakers.
