When Rene Barbier got the abandoned very old "coster" (steeply sloping traditional Priorat vineyard) back into production they thought they had bought a plot of Carinyena (Carignan) ... and to their great surprise they discovered that 40% of the plot consisted of Garnatxa Peluda (indigenous Grenache). This grape ripens before the Carinyena (Carignan) and gives more freshness. Coincidence and luck because it is the last piece of the puzzle that was needed to bring the balance of Bellvisos.

The Partida Pedrer belongs to the Bellvisos vineyard, but this part is north-facing, allowing the winemaker to harvest the shaded freshness and the sun-drenched morning warmth. With just a little less direct sunlight in a warm climate, this produces very elegant wines. The young plantation of Grenache and Cariñena (but a very rare Priorat variety) allows to naturally create a red wine and a rosé full of complexity. The only wine in the range that does not see added sulphur during its life is the rosé Partida Pedrer, a wine that needed almost 17 months to ferment, initially in used oak barrels and the last eight months in stainless steel to prevent the wine from becoming too dominated by oak. This natural wine is produced with a direct pressing to obtain a subtle colour. The nose is expressive and very different from the average rosé. In fact, it is more of a blanc de noirs and has the profile of a white wine. It has a serious taste with a very good balance, tasty aromas and a dry finish. It was bottled in May 2024 and only released in early 2025 after bottle maturation and less than 1,540 bottles were produced. Here Parker starts his review with: " The breathtaking rosé ..... ."

The style of Partida Pedrer Rosat is dry, fresh and complex, with notes of red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), orange peel, wild herbs and a slightly earthy undertone. This makes this rosé a perfect match for dishes with a certain refinement and layering, in which its lively acidity and subtle tannins play an important role. It is difficult to compare, but is similar in style to the López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Rosado Gran Reserva

1. Grilled salmon with beetroot and horseradish cream
The earthy beetroot supports the minerality of the wine, while the structure of the salmon fits nicely with the full mouthfeel. The spicy touch of horseradish enhances the lively acidity.

2. Roasted chicken with sumac, pomegranate and couscous
The spicy freshness of sumac and the fruity accents of pomegranate match the aromatic and lively character of the rosé. Couscous brings texture and balance.

3. Lentil salad with grilled eggplant, tomato and feta
The earthy lentils and salty feta play to the depth of the wine, while the roasted vegetables highlight the spicy and floral notes.

4. Baked monkfish with chorizo ​​cream and fennel
The firm structure of the monkfish matches the body of the wine. The spicy chorizo ​​adds tension, and fennel underlines the fresh elements in the glass.

5. Veal tartare with raspberry, basil and almond
The soft, fresh flesh goes beautifully with the fruity profile of the rosé. The raspberry enhances the red fruit and the almond adds a subtle nutty layer.

6. Guinea fowl with rose harissa, carrot puree and preserved lemon
The slightly sweet-spicy harissa and citrus support the spicy and floral character of the wine. The silky texture of the meat makes it a harmonious combination.

René Barbier (fourth generation of the same name !!!) started in the world of wine in 1992 at Clos Mogador with his father, the other René Barbier, the bearded and dedicated more than 20 years of his life to wine there. The first 10 years he worked mainly in the winery and then mainly in the vineyards and learned that unique land brings unique wines. This has now been proven with the iconic Clos Mogador, Venus Universal and Espectacle wines. In 2001 Rene Barbier had the opportunity to buy a small very old "coster" (steep sloping, traditional) vineyard called Els Bellvisos. This vineyard was abandoned and it was fascinating, in the middle of a steep quarry of holm oaks, the views and the absolute inhospitability are spectacular. It was during this same period that another major influence came into Rene's life in the form of Sara Pérez, his current wife and partner. The daughter of José Luis Pérez, one of the most important figures in the Spanish wine world.

Together with Sara they have brought the Bellvisos vineyard back into production. It was an uncompromising place, but one that offered the chance to make a wine that was one with nature. They started this project based on their philosophy of life: a sustainable, organic project where they could close the circle of life. This fascinating place known as Bellvisos (Bella Vista - Beautiful View) is an extremely steep "coster" or sloping vineyard which, due to the structure of the Llicorella or slate soil, makes it impossible to build vineyard terraces. It was abandoned 40 years before herbicides and chemical pesticides were available so was already completely original organic and biological. There are no neighbors because of the steep slopes around it: not even the bravest would plant a vineyard here! As a result, the area has been in perfect balance for a long time.

Ten years ago they started pruning and the abandoned vines at Bellvisos were brought back into production. They use a mule and hand plowing alternated with cutting the weeds. We apply herbal tea and milk whey as fertilizer and constantly walk through the vines. All manual and aimed at maintaining balance between the freshness of the plot and the depth that is typical Priorat (that which makes the wines so unique). We decide when to harvest based on our taste buds and our intuition… according to a very personal criterion. We prepare each wine in the vineyard by reproducing the wild yeasts ourselves that will lead to a natural alcoholic fermentation, preserving the different aromas according to each vintage.

The Bellvisos and the Partida del Pedrer wines come from this great unique, authentic vineyard in the heart of the Priorat.
