点评:We had an absolutely fantastic day in Priorat with Travel Priorat, and I honestly think the experience would not have been the same without Ania.
From the very beginning, Ania understood what we were looking for. We were four people with a genuine interest in food, wine and the region, but we also wanted something personal and authentic – not a standard tour where you simply arrive, taste a few wines and move on. That is exactly what we got.
The whole day felt carefully put together, but never rigid or rushed. Ania has an impressive knowledge of Priorat, but what I appreciated most was the way she shared it. It never felt like a lecture. It was more like spending a day with someone who genuinely loves the region and enjoys introducing people to it.
Our first stop was Saó del Coster in Gratallops, where we met Patrick Pochon. Visiting such a small winery and tasting the wines in the old barrel room was a fantastic start to the day. It felt real and personal, and gave us an immediate sense of what makes Priorat so special.
We then continued to Sangenís i Vaqué in Porrera, where we tasted both younger and older vintages. The combination of the wines, the history of the family and the setting made this another highlight. Ania's knowledge really added something here. She connected the different places, people and wines in a way that made the whole day much more meaningful.
Lunch at Brots was another great choice. A tiny restaurant, imaginative food and a very relaxed atmosphere. It was exactly the kind of place we would never have found on our own. It also says a lot about Ania that she knows these places and understands how to put together a day where the food is just as important as the wine.
The final winery, Mas Doix, was a perfect ending. A completely different experience from the small family wineries earlier in the day, with an impressive modern winery, beautiful views and some outstanding wines.
But although the wineries and wines were excellent, Ania was the real highlight.
She was warm, funny, knowledgeable and incredibly easy to spend a whole day with. She clearly has genuine relationships with the people she brings her guests to meet, and that makes a huge difference. We never felt like tourists being taken through a predetermined programme. We felt like guests being introduced to a place that Ania genuinely cares about.
We have done wine tours before, but this was something different. It felt personal, relaxed and authentic. We learned a lot, tasted some fantastic wines, ate extremely well and, most importantly, had a wonderful day together.
Priorat is a beautiful and fascinating region, but I would strongly recommend experiencing it with someone who knows it properly. If you are considering a visit, I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Travel Priorat – and especially Ania.
Thank you, Ania, for an absolutely fantastic day. You made an already great experience even better, and it is one of the days from our trip to Catalonia that we will remember for a long time.
Five stars without hesitation.
翻译:在Travel Priorat的安排下,我们在普里奥拉特度过了一个极其美妙的一天。说实话,如果没有安妮亚的参与,这样的体验恐怕就无法实现了。
从一开始,安妮亚就明白我们想要什么。我们四个人都对美食、葡萄酒以及这个地区抱有浓厚的兴趣,但我们也希望获得一种更贴心、更原汁原味的体验——而不是那种到了地方后只是品尝几款葡萄酒便匆匆离开的常规旅游团。而这一点正是我们所获得的。
整个一天的行程显得精心策划、恰到好处。但始终不显生硬或仓促。安妮亚对普里奥拉托产区有着深厚的了解,不过我最欣赏的是她分享知识的方式——完全不像是在讲课,更像是与一位真心热爱这片土地、乐于向他人介绍它的人共度一天。
我们的第一站是格拉塔洛普斯的萨奥-德尔-科斯特酒庄,在那里我们见到了帕特里克·波雄。参观这样一家规模很小的酒庄,并在古老的酒桶房里品鉴葡萄酒,为这一天拉开了美妙的序幕。那种体验既真实又亲切。这让我们立刻体会到了普里奥拉托地区的独特魅力。
随后我们前往波雷拉的Sangenís i Vaqué酒庄,品尝了不同年份的葡萄酒。这些葡萄酒、家族的历史以及酒庄所处的环境共同构成了此行的又一亮点。Ania的渊博知识在此发挥了重要作用——她将各个地点、人物与葡萄酒巧妙地联系起来,使得这一天变得更有意义。
在Brots餐厅享用午餐也是一个绝佳的选择。这是一家规模很小的餐厅。富有创意的菜肴与极其轻松的氛围——这正是我们自己绝对找不到的地方。安妮亚能知道这些地方,还懂得如何安排一整天的行程,让美食与美酒同样成为其中的亮点,这一点足以体现她的优秀之处。
最后一站是马斯·多伊斯酒庄,为此次行程画上了完美的句号。与当天早些时候参观的那些小型家族酒庄相比,这里的体验截然不同:现代化的酒庄设施令人印象深刻,景色也美不胜收,还有若干品质卓越的佳酿可供品尝。虽然那些酒庄和葡萄酒都堪称一流,但安尼亚才是真正的亮点。
她热情、风趣、博学,和她一起度过一整天也极其愉快。显然,她与她带客人去见的那些人都有着真挚的友谊,这一点至关重要。我们从未觉得自己只是被带着按既定行程游览的游客;相反,我们更像是被引荐到一个安尼亚真心热爱的地方的贵宾。
我们以前也参加过葡萄酒之旅。但这次的经历则截然不同。它显得很贴心、轻松且真实。我们学到了很多知识,品尝了诸多美酒,吃得也极为满足。最重要的是,我们共同度过了极其美好的一天。
普里奥拉托是个美丽又迷人的地区,但我强烈建议与真正了解此地的人一同前往。如果你也正考虑去游览,我会毫不犹豫地推荐Travel Priorat——尤其是Ania。
谢谢你,Ania,让我们度过了无比美妙的一天。您让原本就很棒的体验变得更加完美,那天是我们加泰罗尼亚之旅中我们会长久铭记的一天。
毫不犹豫地给予五星好评。
