Descripció
Senzilla excursió pels voltants de la Cartoixa d’Scala Dei que ens durà fins a la font Pregona, una tranquil·la raconada a peu del Racó de Missa de Montsant, on diuen que la bona acústica de la muntanya santa hi feia sentir les campanes del monestir. Visitarem la Cartoixa i coneixerem la història dels monjos cartoixans i la seva vital importància en la configuració de l’actual Priorat vitivinícola, que avui viu un nou resorgir.
Acabarem el dia amb la visita a un dels cellers del poble d’Scaladei i amb un tast dels seus vins.
