GREAT SUCCESS OF THE HARVEST FESTIVAL 2025

The Harvest Festival 2025 at the Celler Cooperatiu de Cornudella de Montsant was a celebration full of territory, tradition and a great atmosphere. More than 100 people participated in the popular breakfast, enjoying grilled organic pork, toasted bread and the first taste of the new oil freshly produced from our mill – one of the most anticipated moments of the day, which allowed us to discover the aromas and freshness of this harvest.

After breakfast, the winery’s president, Francesc Adzerias, and our oenologist, Jordi Rovira, addressed a few words of thanks to all those present and officially presented the Vi Novell 2025, a young, fruity, lively and aromatic red wine made with native varieties from the district of Cornudella, which symbolizes the beginning of a new vintage full of energy and enthusiasm.

In their speech, both the president and the winemaker wanted to highlight and deeply thank the work of all the winery workers, as well as the dedication and commitment of all the partners. Thanks to their perseverance, love for the land and collective effort, the winery continues to operate more than 100 years after its construction, keeping alive the cooperative spirit that defines us.

Next, the exhibition HARVEST AT THE FEET OF MONTSANT was inaugurated, a photographic exhibition with images from eight photographers who sensitively capture the work of the harvest, both in the field and inside the winery.

The day also included the presence of TheWineTruck, which served wines and vermouth throughout the morning, reinforcing the festive and welcoming atmosphere.

At the Celler Cooperatiu we are very satisfied with the great participation and good reception of this day, which highlights the work of our members, as well as the strength of our community.

HARVEST DIARY 2025

HARVEST DIARY 2025

Photo of hands in the grape harvest, scissors cutting grapes

At the Celler Cooperatiu de Cornudella we are starting a new adventure that we are especially excited about: the Diari de Verema 2025. This new section of our website and social networks will be an open window to the entire harvest process, from the first visits to the vineyards to the arrival of the grapes in the cellar and the start of winemaking.

We want you to experience with us, step by step, the effort, dedication and passion behind each bottle of wine. Not only will you taste the final result, but you will also learn first-hand the story within each drop.

A journey from the vineyard to the glass

During the months leading up to the grape harvest , we will visit the vineyards of the members who are part of our cooperative, spread across the spectacular landscapes of Priorat and the Serra del Montsant . We will meet the farmers who care for each vine with patience and love, and who are the true guardians of our land.

We will explain how we control ripening : how we measure the sugar, acidity and polyphenols of the grapes to know the optimal time for the harvest. We will also see how this year’s climatic conditions, with their particularities, will influence the quality and aromatic profile of the wines.

The magic of the harvest

When the key moment arrives, we will experience together the excitement of the 2025 harvest . We will capture in images and videos the intense work in the vineyard: the cutting of the grapes, the sound of the baskets filling, the fresh and sweet aroma of the must. We want you to almost feel the touch of the grapes in your hands and the energy of the people who participate.

We will accompany the farmers ‘ work and talk to them to collect their impressions, stories and memories. Because the grape harvest is not just a job: it is a tradition, a celebration and a moment of community gathering that is part of our cultural heritage.

From grapes to wine: winemaking

Once the grapes arrive at the Celler Cooperatiu de Cornudella , another exciting chapter begins: winemaking . We will explain to you, with the help of our oenologist and the winemaker , how the selection, destemming, pressing and fermentation are carried out. We will discover what techniques we use to extract the best from each variety and preserve the unique personality of our wines.

Through the 2025 Harvest Journal , we will also talk about our native varieties, such as Grenache and Carignan , as well as other grapes that bring nuances and complexity to our wines.

A lively and interactive story

We will frequently update this section with new content: chronicles, photographs and videos that will allow you to follow the entire campaign closely. It will be a living story , in which you will be able to see the evolution of the grapes, the work in the field and in the winery, and the unique atmosphere that can be breathed during these days.

We also encourage you to participate by leaving comments, questions or sharing your own harvest experiences. We want this newspaper to also be a meeting place for wine and land lovers.

Experience the harvest with us

The 2025 Harvest Diary is much more than a work log: it is an invitation to discover the heart of the Cornudella Cooperative Winery. It is an opportunity to connect with the land, with the people who work it and with the process that turns grapes into a wine with soul.

Follow us and live with us every moment of this harvest. Together we will celebrate the arrival of a new vintage full of aromas, colors and emotions that will be trapped in each bottle.

Where will you find us?

Here, on the website, we will be making summary posts and we will follow them more exhaustively on our Instagram and Facebook profiles @cellercornudella.

Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset: two wines twinned by a territory with soul

Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset: two wines twinned by a territory with soul

In the heart of Priorat, there are two architectural and wine-growing gems that symbolize the strength of a territory: the Catedral del Vi de Cornudella de Montsant and the Catedral del Vi de Falset , two modernist cooperative wineries with more than a century of history. Each of these wineries, moreover, is located in the shadow of a medieval castle that has marked the history of its town: the Castell de Siurana and the Castell de Falset .

This landscape of vineyards, heritage and tradition has inspired us to create a unique twinning between two wines that symbolize everything we share: the passion for wine, respect for the land and roots in the territory. Thus was born the joint project of Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset , two emblematic references within the DO Montsant that dialogue with each other with character, elegance and their own identity.

Two wines, two souls, the same land

Despite their stylistic and production differences, Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset share the same cooperative spirit, the fruit of the work of farmers committed to the vineyard and quality. This twinning is intended to be a tribute to the years of collective effort that have made it possible for the Priorat wine region to be a benchmark in the production of wines with character and authenticity.

Siurana Castle: elegance and freshness from Cornudella

Castell de Siurana is one of the new additions to the Celler Cooperatiu de Cornudella , made with a careful selection of Grenache and Carignan from old costers vineyards , located at high altitude. The aging in French oak barrels provides subtle nuances that respect the fruit and accentuate its complexity.

In the glass, it presents an intense red color with ruby reflections . On the nose we find aromas of ripe black fruit, balsamic notes, toasted notes and fine spices . On the palate it stands out for its freshness, balanced structure and a long and silky finish . It is a wine that expresses the best of the Montsant mountain landscape, and is ideal for pairing with dishes of beef or lamb, roasted poultry, pasta with mushrooms or stews with a red wine base .

Falset Castle: maturity and structure from Falset and Marçà

Castell de Falset , for its part, is one of the flagship wines of the Falset Marçà Cooperative . It is made with a blend of Grenache Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah , vinified separately using specific techniques and with careful aging in different types of barrels.

On a sensory level, Castell de Falset offers an intense ruby color , with aromas of ripe fruit, sweet spices and a slightly toasted background . In the mouth it is a soft wine, with polished tannins and a mature structure that invites you to continue drinking . It is ideal to accompany dishes from traditional Catalan cuisine , such as roasts, stews or spoon dishes , and also with cured cheeses or grilled meats.

A toast to shared history

With this twinning, the Cellers Cooperatius de Cornudella and Falset Marçà reaffirm their commitment as benchmarks of the cooperative movement in the Priorat , and as promoters of a sustainable, rooted and collaborative viticulture model. The Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset wines are, at the same time, a bridge between the past and the future, between tradition and innovation, and between two communities that have known how to unite to give a voice to the territory through wine.

A lot that celebrates the vineyard, cooperation and heritage

With the desire to share this twinning with all lovers of good wine, we have created a special batch that includes a bottle of each wine —Castell de Siurana and Castell de Falset— and two wine glasses screen-printed with the logos of the two wineries .

This pack is a perfect way to discover two ways of understanding the DO Montsant , two expressions of the wine-making Priorat , and the same passion: making wines with soul.

Discover the twinned lot in our online store or come pick it up at the winery . Taste, compare, enjoy… and toast with us to many more years of friendship, vineyards and good wine in the heart of Montsant.
