A selection of the most relevant experiences in Priorat
A detailed guide to the fair’s must-attend events
The Falset Wine Fair (Fira del Vi) features a decentralized program that explores the complexity of the DOQ Prioratand DO Montsant regions. These specialized tastings move away from the main fairground’s mass format, offering technical sessions, direct contact with producers, and access to exclusive labels rarely found outside the cellars.

Location: Falset Castle.
