Producer Amós Bañeres

SPAIN

After a first life as a pharmacist near Barcelona, ​​Amós Bañeres returns home to Penedès and takes over the management of the family winery: 5.5 hectares, where many of the region's indigenous varieties are present. Right from the start, the choice was made to run the vineyards organically, each year moving the bar a little further. Even in the cellar, Amós immediately embraced the ideas of minimal intervention, of keeping and accompanying the grapes on their transformation path into wine. The vinification and aging take place, depending on the wine, in used barrels or amphorae in the cellar adjacent to the family home.
