The wine produced by Celler Sabaté comes exclusively from the vineyards of the family property and from their own harvest. The vineyards have an average of 35 years old, with Grenache being the main variety of grapes, but other vines such as Carignan and Cabernet Sauvignon are also cultivated. Grapes are aged in French and Hungarian oak casks to obtain the excellent quality of wines from the D.O.Q Priorat.
