La Vinyeta
La Vinyeta is a collection of small vineyards and olive groves in the heart of the Empordá, in an area called Mollet de Peralada. A young, family owned business it began some 15 years ago when Josep Serra purchased two old Carignan and Grenache vineyards – aged 55 and 80 years old – and kept on planting. The winery now stands at a reasonable 30 hectares. It was a few years later in 2006 that the winery was built and the first vintages of were made from over 10 varieties. In 2009 La Vinyeta became one of the first vineyards to adopt Integrated farming in the region which it has continued to develop and evolve over time.

Production of 180 bottles of maximum authenticity: old Carinyena vineyard harvested, stomped, and spontaneously fermented in ceramic containers in the vineyard, replicas of ancient Roman dolias, buried in the ground. Gentle pressing in a traditional manual press.
