From May 14 to 16, El Pati in Valls focuses on the production of the DO Tarragona.
Valls organizes a showcase where the primary sector and local restaurants converge without artifice. Seven wineries from the DO Tarragona, including benchmarks such as Adernats, Vives Ambrós, or Celler Pallarades, will present around thirty references highlighting the typicity of Macabeo and the cooperative legacy of the Alt Camp region. The event is complemented by cuisine from six local establishments and a demanding musical selection featuring a live performance by the band A Contra Blues.
