Only 15 minutes from the olive oil mill, and we arrive at this small winery in Penedés, the region famous for its Cava. The winemaker, who belongs to a family of farmers for generations, will show you the old vineyards of autochthonous grapes and the ancestral methods he uses to produce the wine. After a short tour, you will taste four fantastic wines, from Sparkling to reds, and have a delicious lunch sitting outdoors, next to the old vineyards. The lunch includes fresh Catalan dishes like the famous "pà i tomàquet" (bread, tomato, and olive oil), anchovies, Catalan savory flatbread (the Catalan version of focaccia), a charcuterie selection, and a cheese platter.
