Celler de Capçanes
D.O. Montsant • Cult Kosher Wines • Priorat
"Where ancient Jewish tradition meets the wild terroir of Montsant to create wines of unattainable purity and elegance."
01. The Montsant Revolution
Located in the picturesque village of Capçanes, this cooperative winery challenged conventions by demonstrating that the D.O. Montsant could produce reds with the same finesse as the great world Crus. Its success lies in the meticulous management of old Garnacha and Cariñena vineyards, planted in a complex mosaic of soils.
Within our catalog of Spanish wines, Celler de Capçanes stands out for its study of slate (llicorella), limestone, and clay soils, earning outstanding scores from critics such as The Wine Advocate (Robert Parker).
02. The World Reference in Kosher Wine
Peraj Ha'abib
Considered one of the best Kosher wines in the world. It is a Lo-Mevushal (unpasteurized) that maintains its natural vitality. Its complexity has been highlighted by Decanter magazine as an icon of Mediterranean elegance.
Strict Certification
Each bottle is supervised by the Orthodox Union (OU) and the Rabbinate of Madrid, guaranteeing absolute purity for Jewish Passover (Kosher for Passover), ideal for those seeking red wines of maximum spiritual and technical excellence.
Sommelier's Frequently Asked Questions
How do Capçanes wines differ based on their soil?
The winery vinifies Garnacha plots separately to highlight their origin: slate provides mineral notes and power; clay offers volume; and limestone, as in the Flor del Flor line, delivers extreme finesse. They are authentic collection wines.
How to understand Kosher laws in wine?
The process prohibits the use of animal-derived fining agents and requires that only Jewish personnel touch the wine during its production. For a technical immersion, you can visit the International Kosher Community portal.
