The Denominación de Origen (DO) Terra Alta is a wine region located in the autonomous community of Catalonia, in the province of Tarragona. This DO is known for its production of high-quality wines, especially white wines and wines made with the Garnacha Blanca variety.
Wines from the DO Terra Alta are characterized by their freshness and elegance. The Garnacha Blanca variety is the most representative, producing aromatic white wines that are fresh and well-balanced between fruitiness and acidity. Good rosé wines are also produced, as well as some red wines with varieties such as Garnacha Tinta, Cariñena, and Syrah.
The territory of the DO Terra Alta is characterized by a Mediterranean climate with continental influence and by limestone soils poor in organic matter. These factors provide a unique structure to the wines, with an authentic expression of the terroir.
