The idea for this project took hold after a long afternoon lunch at Piperade on a summer’s day back in 2003, when the opportunity to buy a vineyard in the Montsant region of Spain had just surfaced. Mesmerized by the romance of possibly owning a vineyard and producing a wine with their own signature, Master Sommelier Emmanuel Kemiji (now proprietor of Miura Vineyards), and his band of French chefs; Gerald Hirigoyen, Sylvain Portay and Laurent Manrique joined forces. In 2005 the venture grew to include more friends, and more vineyards in neighboring Priorat. The winery itself was finally completed in 2010 with production geared to reach a scant 3500 cases. Clearly the objective here has never been a commercial one, but rather one driven by quality, pride, friendship and a longing to return to one’s roots.
Clos Pissarra is a foreboding place, situated just 85 miles southwest of Barcelona, surrounded by Priorat, and Montsant. It’s like walking back in time as one can easily envision how little has changed here over the centuries. There are few places as dramatic on this earth where vines are planted. It’s amazing that anything can find a way to grow here as the soil is mostly comprised of a soft, crumbly slate and one sees hardly any actual dirt on the ground of this very mountainous terrain. The struggle is real for these vines in such brutal and harsh environs, but that is exactly what makes the ensuing wines so special and speak so loudly of this land.
