Dara is a surprising, deep red wine steeped in Porrera's mineral purity, crafted by the family-owned Sangenís i Vaqué winery under DOQ Priorat. Grown on steep licorella (slate) terraces through a balanced blend of Grenache, Carignan (Samsó), and Merlot, this wine combines the red fruit friendliness of local grapes with Merlot's structure, body, and velvety texture. With beautifully integrated oak aging, Dara is an elegant, honest, and smooth Priorat showcasing authentic heroic terroir character.
In the glass, Dara displays a bright, deep garnet-red color of medium-high density with youthful violet and purple highlights. The nose immediately opens with an honest, seductive, and markedly mineral bouquet: ripe black and red fruit aromas —such as dark cherries, wild blackberries, black plums, and raspberries— emerge harmoniously intertwined with pure cocoa, soft vanilla, violet petals, and a distinctive licorella slate, graphite, and Mediterranean garrigue herb undertone. On the palate, it delivers a broad, warm entry with a surprisingly velvety texture; its mid-palate is fleshy, structured, and fluid, featuring sweet, polished tannins balanced by clean acidity that brings freshness. A long, persistent, mineral, and delightful finish leaves an unforgettable echo of fruit preserves and subtle oak toast.
A luxury street-food pairing quick to assemble at home. Melty duck meat and sweet cherries pair sublimely with this Priorat's velvety texture and ripe fruitiness.
A groundbreaking surf-and-turf match of high elegance. Fleshy bluefin tuna and soy umami background find their ideal counterpoint in this wine's mineral palate and polished tannins.
A quick, refined, and delicious tapas option. Lactic cheese richness and sweet fig notes highlight cocoa touches and slate minerality in Dara.
