Esteve i Gibert Viticultors, like many others in the Penedès is a story of generations of growing grapes of families engaged in grape production.

The 2,009, this story takes a step forward. Josep Esteve proposing to his daughter, Laura, and his son, the young winemaker Albert Lopez came back to do the most, as he had formerly done. The smallest winery in the D.O. born

The family farm has 19 ha of vineyards on the shady slopes of the Ordal, which are worked organically. But in these early days, only a small part, the selection of the best vineyards, is designed to develop their fine wines. The rest, as we have always done, is still sold to other wineries, pending further expand year by year, the production itself.

Thus, we find a winery that is based on respect, passion for nature, know-how and tradition 3 generations of winemakers, and complements it with modern interpretation Albert makes his environment, terrain, climate , the landscape … of “view” of the estate.

The result: great variety wines …

Personality … with all the vineyards of “Cal Panxa”
