Sangenís I Vaqué Coranya 2015
Priorat with Soul, Power and Finesse

Discover the essence of Priorat with Coranya 2015 from Sangenís i Vaqué – a wine crafted from 40-year-old vines, grown in the heart of Porrera, where wine and history are deeply intertwined.
This wine is a sublime example of what happens when passion, terroir, and time come together in perfect harmony. The name Coranya refers to the specific vineyard where the grapes are carefully selected – a special parcel where the slate soil llicorella creates intensity, depth, and layer upon layer of character.

Grapes and Vinification
Coranya 2015 is made from 50% Carignan and 50% Grenache, both harvested from La Coranya – a vineyard with more than four decades of history. The wine is aged for 12 months in one-year-old oak barrels – 85% French oak from Allier and 15% American oak – giving it refined complexity without overpowering the fruit. It is neither filtered nor fined, preserving the wine’s natural intensity and structure. With a limited production of only 4,000 to 5,000 bottles, Coranya is a true collector’s item for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.

Tasting Notes – When Wine Speaks Its Own Language
Coranya 2015 opens with a deep, dark bouquet of black cherries, ripe plums, dried thyme, and graphite. On the palate, you’re met with a powerful yet silky structure, where licorice, cocoa, warm spices, and mineral depth are elegantly balanced by ripe tannins and fresh acidity. The finish is long and persistent, with clear notes of slate and herbs – a true reflection of Porrera’s wild nature and unique terroir.

Sangenís I Vaqué – A Family Venture with Roots and Heart
The story of Sangenís I Vaqué begins in 1978, when Pere Sangenís and Conxita Vaqué decided to revive the family’s vineyards in Porrera. But the legacy goes even further back: Conxita’s grandfather, Josep Simó, was already making wine in the area as far back as 1886, and today, the wine is still produced in his old cellar on Plaça Catalunya. Now the next generation – Maria and Núria – continue the tradition alongside their father, with passion, precision, and a deep respect for nature. All vineyards lie within the boundaries of Porrera, and every step in both vineyard and cellar is driven by a focus on quality over quantity.
This makes Sangenís I Vaqué one of the most authentic producers in the Priorat D.O.Q. – a wine region in Spain renowned for its powerful yet elegant wines with soul and depth.
