The newest star in Priorato, Partida Bellvisos is the creation of Rene Barbier Jr, whose father first set foot on this remote and unfriendly region exactly twenty years ago. Sixty year old vines from four hectares of steep terraced vineyards are the exclusive source for the wine affectionately called ÒAriadnaÓ after ReneÕs daughter with his wife the renowned winemker Sara Perez. The old, disease free, and isolated vineyards lie between 300-350 meters of elevation, with northern exposition, and are planted solely with Cari–ena (Carignane) and Garnacha Peluda (Ôhairy GrenacheÕ a hairy-leafed version of the Grenache found in the southern Rhone Valley. Rene stresses that his organic treatment of the vineyards is due specifically to the fact that the land is clean and has never seen any diseases. Open barrel fermentation employs only native yeasts; the wine is then aged for up to 20 months in the same 300 liter barriques of slightly toasted bois de Bourgogne.
