The Wine
A little sub appellation of Tarragona on the eastern coast of Spain, Priorat has emerged from obscurity to produce some of the country’s most exciting wines. Imaginació is created at a small family cellar in the village of Gratallops, at the centre of some of the region’s most celebrated vineyards. It takes its name from the once great but now ruined priory of Scala Dei.
