Oriol’s 7.5 hectares of vines in Vilassar de Dalt, his hometown, are left to grow as naturally as possible. He uses the lunar calendar to plan production, pruning his vines only very minimally and allowing nature to curate the soil between the plants. As such, wild vegetation has sprung up around his vines, allowing them to grow freely in a natural environment. Oriol’s ancient vineyards of native vines are largely based on granite rock, known locally as Sauló, at between 100 and 350 metres elevation. This results in wines often rich in minerality, conjuring aromas that will take you all the way to the Mediterranean.

Terroir: granitic with limestone marine deposit soil. 

Age of the vines: 23 years old 

Vinification: Harvested by hand on the 11th of September (every year this wine is harvested on the same day). Pansa Blanca is destemed and Garnatxa Negra is kept as whole bunches.
