The Penedes district is situated between Barcelona and Tarragona in Catalonia, North Eastern Spain, and takes its name not from a town or village, but from a former administrative area which covered the hilly coastal area. The mountains of Montserrat mark the border to the north and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. The mild Mediterranean climate is ideal for growing vines, with warm summers, mild winters and moderate rainfall - there is evidence that the Romans planted vineyards here. Due to the complex topography of the coastal hills, the microclimates are varied, the slightly wetter weather in the valleys means that there is no need for irrigation. The soil compositions range from chalky-clay to sandstone with distinct differences in depth. This Cava is produced from the native varieties of Xarel-lo, Macabeo and Parellada. Xarello, sometimes hyphenated as Xarel-lo, is a light skinned native Catalan grape, noted for bringing high acidity to the blend, an essential characteristic in sparkling wine, along with refreshing citrusy flavours. Macabeo is a synonym for Viura and produces fresh, floral and aromatic wines, while Parellada flourishes in higher altitude sites where it retains acidity and brings complementary notes of blossom and green apple.

The Tetas family has over 150 years of winemaking experience in Penedès and in the 1990s, the family decided to embark on a new phase of growth and acquired Mas Blanc in the heart of the Priorat appellation. Situated between the villages of Bellmunt and Falset, the estate covers 18-hectares of organically farmed vines. The family invested in the estate, creating vine terraces, planting native and imported grape varieties and building a brand-new winery. Third generation Joan Josep Tetas became a pioneer in organic viticulture, as he was convinced that it was essential to preservethe land for future generations. Staying true to this philosophy, they have gone a step further by adopting biodynamic organic farming practices. In 2007, Pinord was the first winery in Spain to receive the Demeter Certificate for Biodynamic Agriculture. The Tetas family’s philosophy is one of family tradition, with a pioneering and innovative spirit, a love for the land and a passion for great wines. Their wines are full of personality and are an authentic expression of the terroir that bore their fruit in harmony with the environment.
