My wife and I are visiting the Priorat soon. I found this book to be a perfect introduction to the region. It is well written and easy to understand, regardless of your knowledge of wine. Not only do I think it will be a nice travel companion and serve as a valuable info guide, but I also learned much about most of the Priorat winemakers and wines. Although it has plenty of maps of the primary Priorat villages, the only thing it is missing is a general map of the entire region. But, overall a wonderful product.

Good guide to wineries. Great tool for planing a trip to Priorat region. would use some more info on the background of the region.

The cover price for this guide paid for itself a few times over just counting the wine we've bought and liked. It's a really well thought-out, attractive format, and very clear and easily organized. The Vinologue people have found corners even the locals don't know about (we live in Barcelona). It's a pretty useful book even if you're not traveling, just ordering off a menu or picking a bottle for home. We go back to this book to check their notes on the wines before buying in our local shop.

Purchaed this book for planning my Spain trip. The Priorat region is a lesser known wine region of Spain - and this book provided the information and details I needed to plan my . Experienced a bit of a delay with the shipping - but Miquel could not have been more helpful in following through to make sure I received in time for my trip. Buy this book.

This is the second book by the author I have purchased and lives up to the first in it's creative & visionary way of bringing the region to me. A must have book!

The only definitive guide to this wonderful and little-known (beyond wine nerd circles) wine region!
