点评:Just an outstanding day, one which I will always remember. Priorat, and it's big, bold red wines, has long been a favorite of mine, and being able to visit was a very special occasion for me. Ania was excellent to work with to arrange our day, and Blanca was one of the best tour guides and drivers I've ever met. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny, and kept us on track throughout a busy day. We were on a very tight schedule in the evening to make our train back to Barcelona, and she did a stellar job getting us there in time.
We took the high-speed train from Barcelona, which was a treat in itself. On the return leg, I thought to check our speed -- 143 mile per hour! I wish we had such trains in the US.
We left the lunch selection to Blanca, and she knocked it out of the park. I cannot imagine a more perfect restaurant to suit the day! It was just wonderful, a tiny local place we would never have found on our own, with an incredible wine list and amazing food. I had requested to visit Clos Mogador, which they were able to arrange, but we left the other two visits to them, and their choices were perfect. Each winery and tasting was unique, and we were able to see a lot of Priorat's beautiful territory.
Having been in Spain for nearly two weeks, we had accumulated about 18 bottles of wine and olive oil, and Ania and Blanca were able to arrange for those to be shipped back to Connecticut along with the bottles we bought at the wineries in Priorat. Shipping came to around $20 USD per bottle roughly, but the vineyard prices were surprisingly reasonable, so I think it worked out very well.
I highly recommend Travel Priorat to handle your day trip. Can't say enough good things about Blanca and Ania. They were just wonderful.

我们从巴塞罗那乘坐高速列车,这本身就是一种享受。在回程途中,我想检查一下我们的速度——每小时 143 英里!我希望我们在美国有这样的火车。
我们把午餐选择留给了 Blanca,她做得非常好。我想象不出还有比这更完美的餐厅适合这一天!这真是太棒了,我们自己永远找不到的一家小餐馆,有令人难以置信的酒单和美味的食物。我曾要求参观 Clos Mogador,他们能够安排,但我们把其他两次参观留给了他们,他们的选择非常完美。每个酒庄和品酒都是独一无二的,我们能够看到普里奥拉特的很多美丽地区。
在西班牙待了将近两周,我们积累了大约 18 瓶葡萄酒和橄榄油,Ania 和 Blanca 能够安排将它们连同我们在普里奥拉特酒庄购买的酒一起运回康涅狄格州。运费大约为每瓶 20 美元,但葡萄园的价格出奇地合理,所以我认为效果很好。
我强烈推荐 Travel Priorat 来安排您的一日游。Blanca 和 Ania 的赞美之词真是说不完。他们真是太棒了。
