Wine visit with local cheeses at Costers del Priorat ★ 4.2
A winery visit through the modern cellar and the old rooms where Carthusian monks made wine in the 15th century, then three DOQ Priorat wines tasted with local cheeses.
Falset's Tuesday market in the Plaça de la Quartera. The Priorat tourist board names it as a place to buy from Formatgeria Linens, the Bellmunt del Priorat goat's cheese dairy.
ACREFA says mató is usually eaten with honey, jam, nuts or a sweet liqueur. A sweet late-harvest Garnacha from Falset with dried-fruit richness stands in for the honey: the cheese stays milky, the wine brings the sweetness.
ACREFA describes mató as clearly white, with a delicate taste recalling milk. These dry whites are fermented in steel with little or no oak and carry high or medium acidity, so they freshen the cheese without covering it.
ACREFA lists a sweet liqueur or spirit among mató's usual partners. An off-dry Garnacha vi ranci, aged oxidatively in small oak casks, brings a nutty rancio note and a touch of sweetness to the cheese's plain milk.
