Tasters reviewed hundreds of wines from regional stalwarts and winemaking legends, with many standouts worth finding. Within this podium of excellence, we are proud to announce that Perinet Merit 2016 is one of the three Spanish wines selected.

Great article by Michael Schachner a New York-based journalist specializing in wine and a member of the Wine Enthusiast magazine’s tasting panel. These are his notes on our beloved Carinyena from our vineyard in Porrera:

Grenaches du Monde is an annual competition open to all wines made predominantly from Grenache grapes, without restriction of colour, origin, or nationality. This travelling event has a clear international vocation, and the ambition to discover the singularities and diversity inherent in the grape variety.

In 2020, Perinet committed to the installation of an 80 Kw PV solar system together with an energy storage system of 144 Kw, replacing an onsite diesel generator power plant. The solar project was successfully crowd funded via a loan provided by over 240 members of Ecrowd community.

Decanter World Wine Awards (DWWA) is the world's largest and most influential wine competition. Judged by the top wine experts from around the globe, the DWWA is trusted internationally for its rigorous judging process. 

Perinet is proud to announce a great success on the 1194 Perinet 2016 achieving a gold medal in this prestigious contest. Positioning Perinet in the top five wineries from the Priorat DOQ with Mas Doix, Ferrer Bobet, Vall Llach and Alvaro Palacios. 

Perinet moves forward in the understanding of both, the ancient and international varietals in the north of the DOQ Priorat. Wines that express the complexity and the strong character of the llicorella (slate soils) and a modern concept of winemaking, introduced by Antoni Sanchez-Ortiz, respecting the expression of each vine. From 2016 vintage Perinet presented a single vineyard Carinyena from Porrera and a single vineyard Garnatxa from Poboleda, both wines with a great acceptance of critics and public.
