Winery: Pardida Creus

Partida Creus is a small family run business located in Bonastre, near Tarragona, in the denomination of Penedes. Behind Partida Creus we find Antonella Gerosa and Massimo Marchiori who in 2001 decided to leave Italy and move to Spain with the intention of making sustainable and quality viticulture with native Catalan grapes. Antonella and Massimo have in particular recovered and valorised two typical varieties that were in danger of disappearing: the garrut and the sumoll, but in the rows we also find other varieties such as the gra gros, the largat, the petit, the xarel-lo, the vermell cartoixa , the viñater, the bobal, and the macabeu. In vineyards they avoid invasive mechanical work, and together with the absence of chemical treatments, emphasizing the biodynamic cycles and the lunar phases, they manage to have a very limited production of excellent quality grapes. The same philosophy is applied in the cellar where wines of maximum integrity are produced, without added sulphites, unfiltered and uncleared. 27,000 bottles produced, divided into ancestral and still wines. and Rosso, Pinot Nero and Merlot, produced with maceration on the skins and aging in barrique.
