Description Vinyes del Terrer

History Vinyes del Terrer

The area where the estates stands used to ne famous for its hazelnut trees, but the Morells preferred to invest in vines. In 1989, they planted Cabernet Sauvignon and some Grenache, as well as a little Macabeu for the whites. 7 hectares in total. Vila Seca lies in the vicinity of Salou, on the seaside. Since 2003, the Morell has been making wines which show the particular character of the local terroir. As they are very respectful of the environment, their estate has been bio-certified since 2019.

Varieties Vinyes del Terrer

Terroir Vinyes del Terrer

Vila Seca, where the red varieties come from, lied within the DO Tarragona, but the local terroir is very unique for the region: it is composed of fossil-rich limestone of marine origin. The estate lies at the sea-level and enjoys the fresh winds from the Mediterranean. Santes Creus, where the macabeu vines are planted, lies within the DO Catalunya, at a higher altitude (300 metres), on soils of clay and limestone.

Vinification Vinyes del Terrer

From the very beginning, the Morells have been working with a deep respect for the environment and the estate has been certified organic since 2019. All their grapes are hand-harvested, in small baskets. The white macerate and ferment in stainless steel tanks, on their lees. The reds are aged for 12 months in barriques (only a small proportion of new oak).
