“Wine Spectator”, /USA, 15th of Nov 2002:

• “Montsant – Near Priorat, Spain´s newest wine region is making its mark:..At the high end, the 50$ Capçanes Cabrida, an old-vine Garnacha from an array of local growers, rivals much of the output from Priorat- and the rest of Spain”

“Decanter – Tim Atkin”/England: “My best wine ever, ever, ever;”,  1999:

• "Cabrida´96: The most enjoyable bottle I´ve ever drunk…Wine doesn´t have to be famous, or ludicrously expensive, to taste great”

“The Observer, Tim Atkin“/England, 1998:

• " .. this particular visit was a revelation.... One red, called Cabrida, is among the best things I´ve tasted all week. It´s easily as good as the stuff I sampled in nearby Priorato and easily less than half the price."

“The Wall Street Journal Europe”,  2004:

• “What´s behind the label: …Priorat and Montsant… have turned out Span´s most concentrated… modern wines… the country´s fastest-rising coop…Celler de Capçanes … Cabrida rivals the best in Spain for explosive fruit and aging potential… Capçanes also makes wines… that carry lower price tags and are outstanding values..”
