Producer Profile
Celler Pardas
Celler Pardas emerged from the vision of two Penedès growers, Ramon Parera and Jordi Arnan, who acquired the historic Can Comas estate in Alt Penedès, near Sant Sadurni d’Anoia. Nestled around an ancient medieval farm, the property spans 30 hectares of forest, diverse crops (primarily cereals), and indigenous grape varieties—Sumoll and Xarel-lo—carefully planted by Ramon and Jordi. Additionally, they source fruit from two ancient northern plots boasting old vines of Sumoll, Xarel-lo, and the locally renowned Malvasía de Sitges—a remarkably acidic grape, dubbed the “Riesling of the Mediterranean” by Ramon due to its challenging vinification process.

Where The Wines Come From
Penedès
In the sun-kissed region of Penedès, nestled in Catalonia, Spain, a growing community of winemakers is embracing the principles of natural winemaking with passion and dedication. Here, amidst the rolling hills and Mediterranean breezes, vintners like Maria Solé and Jordi Torres are leading the charge, cultivating vineyards with organic and biodynamic practices to produce grapes of exceptional quality and character. In the cellar, they practice minimal intervention, allowing the grapes to ferment with native yeasts and refraining from additives, fining, or filtration. The result is a portfolio of vibrant and expressive wines that capture the true essence of Penedès—wines that reflect the region's terroir, history, and spirit with every sip, offering a taste of Catalonia's natural wine revolution.
