General Information

For the production of Minairó 2021, the garnacha, cariñena, syrah, and merlot grapes were manually harvested and fermented separately in small tanks for 10 days at a temperature below 28º. Subsequently, they underwent an aging period in French oak barrels that lasted for 6 months before the final blending. The result is a red wine full of freshness and very versatile in pairing.

Llicorella Vins is a project of the Gil family in the heart of Priorat. Located in the town of El Molar, in the beautiful Mas Perxet estate, the winery is surrounded by a rugged landscape of slate soils and cultivates estate-owned vineyards planted on steep slopes. In this unique terroir, magnificent red wines are born, such as this Minairó 2021. Enjoy it accompanying hearty stews, meat rice dishes, ribs, venison, or aged cheeses.

Tasting notes

Minairó unfolds intense aromas of blackberries and cherries, with delicate notes of nutmeg and aniseed memories.

Its elegant and well-integrated tannins stand out with hints of dried thyme, good acidity, and a persistent and long finish.

The winery

Llicorella Vins is a project initiated by the renowned Valencian group Viñas Familia Gil in the heart of the Priorat. Located in the municipality of El Molar, in a beautiful farmhouse, Mas Perxet, the winery is surrounded by a rugged landscape of slate soils that give rise to intriguing red wines thanks to the peculiarities of its terroir.

In this terroir, the vines grow among fossil slates known as ‘llicorellas’, and the steep slopes where they are located are swept by winds that vary between cold northern currents and mild breezes from the marine east. 

At Llicorella Vins winery, the main varieties cultivated are garnacha and cariñena, and their flagship wine is the red Minairó.

The origins of Viñas Familia Gil date back to 1906 when Juan Gil Giménez, great-grandfather of the current family managing the project, established a small winery in the municipality of Jumilla. Today, the group comprises 10 wineries located in 10 denominations of origin across the country. All of them adhere to a family philosophy: sustainable cultivation, promoting the native varieties of each region, and respecting the environment.
