About the Priorat Vineyards

In the surroundings of the town of the village Poboleda is the vineyards of La Pleta and Les Foreses situated. Two vineyards that are part of the Priorat territory and deserving of a denomination like this.

The varieties of grapes are cultivated on these two farms: Grenache, Syrah, Cariñena, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. The strains have up to 30 years of life, they provide maturity and structure for the Toto Marques wines Omus and Shirus.

Its characteristic terrain of slate stone, also known as llicorella, distributed in terraces, and its vines with history makes the Toto Family feel very proud of their vineyards.

About the Prades Vineyards

The vineyards are located in Prades at 950 meters high, a symbol of the most natural and characteristic part of the area.
It’s the place where three of them in a total of five vineyards of Toto Marques stand.

The Vineyards: Les Vinyes, Els Estepans, and Els Molinets are the 3 that give the origin to varieties like Grenache, Grenache White, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Riesling, and Xenin which are used in the different wines of the House of Toto Marques.

These Vineyards extend from the Poblet Forest to the town of Prades itself.

Les Vinyes has a great history dating back to the 12th century. However, Els Molinets and Els Estepans stand out for their youth.

Toto Marques and his family invested since 2007 in these vineyards starting with exploring, planting, testing, and releasing the first wines.

The Village Poboleda, Priorat

From the unparalleled place, Priorat rises Poboleda, a town with moderate slopes and a place where the Siurana River passes by with no more than 370 inhabitants and 14 square kilometers.

The meaning of its name, “Bosque de Chopos or Álamos”, says a lot about what Poboleda is: a place surrounded by particular vegetation.

Poboleda is a small town founded in 1170 that awaits many stories and where we can see historical architecture from the 18th and 19th centuries. A place to disconnect and enjoy.

The Village Prades

A town of history and charm, whose origin dates back to Prehistory, and which symbolizes the pride of wines. A place to lose yourself and contemplate the beauty that surrounds you and enjoy what it offers.

Prades is a symbol of identity for the Toto Marques Family. It’s where it all started as being the place of residence that opened the doors to a new world. A place where anecdotes forged over the years, monuments steeped in history, and typical products of the area such as potatoes, hazelnuts, and/or honey, are some of the many things that makes Prades a unique town in the world. A great place to visit.
