How to access the wine cellar ?
The rental of the wine cellar and accessories includes a deposit of 50 €. The amount of the bottles consumed by the client is settled at the end of the stay in cash or directly on our website.
We work in the wine world and therefore attach great importance to wines. As the house is located in a large wine-growing region, we have put together a selection of wines for you to choose from.
The list of wines and the corresponding prices can be found on our website in "Activities" -> "Wine".
What is the wine selection ?
We give priority to local wines but you will also find a selection of international wines. We are aware that if our tenant is a wine enthusiast, after a day of wine touring in the Priorat, he may want to discover a lighter international wine or a champagne for example.
Our selection varies according to the time of year and contains between 10 and 50 references defined by the sommelier, with several bottles of each label, and appropriate purchase prices for each. It's like having a wine shop in your home.
I am a great wine lover, can you advise me?
We are sommeliers by profession. You can have a look at the wine list and if you wish to taste specific wines, we can provide you with a personalised selection. It is important to inform us by e-mail a few days before your arrival so that we can place the wines in the cellar before your arrival.
Furthermore, if you wish to deepen your knowledge on the field, many wine tourism activities for wine lovers are available. See our Activities/Wine section.
I am new to wine, can you recommend some references?
You can contact us by e-mail or WhatsApp if you have any doubts or need advice and explanations about the wines available, for example for wine and food pairing.
In addition, if you want to learn more about wine, you will find a selection of specific wine tourism activities for beginners in the world of wine in our Activities/Wines section.
I didn't like a wine, can I get my money back?
Unfortunately, if the wine has no defect (cork taint or other), we are not able to refund you. We try to have a wide selection of both price and style of wine so that there is something for everyone.
If a bottle does have a defect, please send it to the sommelier to be checked. This is not a common occurrence but it can happen.
I really liked a wine, I want more bottles to drink during my stay or to take home.
You can buy bottles from the cellar to take home. However, for a better stock management, we would prefer that you contact us directly to bring you a new stock if possible. We remain attentive to any specific request.
What equipment is available for the wines?
The wines are kept in a cellar at storage temperature (14/16°C). We provide our customers with a bottle opener, a cooling tank for your bottles, the appropriate glassware, a carafe, etc.
What can I do around here ?
There are many activities to do in the area. You can follow the wine route to discover the wineries of Montsant and Priorat, go kayaking on the Els Guiamets water reserve, discover the local heritage on walks with stunning views or enjoy the beach or Port Aventura with friends.
You can find a detailed list of places of interest in the surrounding area in the "Activities" tab.
