Organic vineyard and high-altitude Mediterranean climate
The Macabeo vineyard is organically certified and grown on calcareous soils with clay layers, at over 700 metres above sea level. The dry climate and marked day–night temperature differences encourage balanced ripening, preserving the grape’s natural acidity and aromatic profile. All viticulture is carried out without herbicides or chemical pesticides, respecting the surrounding biodiversity.
Traditional winemaking with lees ageing
Harvesting is done by hand in small boxes to preserve the integrity of the bunches. After the second fermentation in bottle, the Cava rests on the lees for more than 18 months in our underground cellars. The expedition liqueur comes from a family solera made from wines over 26 years old, adding elegance and complexity. Disgorging and labelling are carried out by hand, ensuring an authentic and sustainable product.
