Much of Tarragona and the Ebro basin falls within the territory
of DO Tarragona, which produces some exceptional wines. The
comarques (local districts) of Tarragonès, Alt Camp, Baix Camp and
Ribera d’Ebre, all of which are located between the River Ebro and
the Mediterranean Sea, offer a pleasant landscapes with a benign
climate that make this land a privileged territory. The Romans were
the true founders of DO Tarragona because it was they who originally
highlighted the geographical origin of Tarragona when they exported
its wines throughout the Mediterranean area.

The DO Tarragona has evolved over time and actively participated in
the winemaking revolution that Catalonia has experienced in recent
years. In DO Tarragona, tradition combines with innovation. The
results of the work and efforts of local producers and wineries can be
tasted in every glass of wine.

The climate, the direct influence of the sea and the gentle terrain have
produced various “terroirs” which give the wines of DO Tarragona
a gentle, soft, fresh and typically Mediterranean character. The
white wines are soft, delicate and light; the rosés are soft, shiny and
transparent; and the reds are balanced, persistent, aromatic and full of flavour. The liquors, known as Tarragona Classics, are typically mellow, silky and intense.
