Vinification
De Llum del Cadi Negre distinguishes itself through the high altitude of its vineyards. Situated at 1200 meters above sea level, the grapes possess ideal characteristics for a unique, vibrant, and fresh style Pinot Noir. Its name evokes the Sierra del Cadi in Bolvir de Cerdanya (Girona). The grapes are harvested in 20 kg crates. Subsequently, a cold pre-fermentation maceration follows to extract additional color from the skins. Vinification itself occurs with minimal intervention, and the wine matures in 500L wooden barrels for at least 6 months.

About Torre del Veguer
The wine estate Torre del Veguer is situated in the Garraf massif, west of Sitges (Catalonia). Torre del Veguer encompasses a total of 15 hectares of vineyards, olive, and fruit trees, all cultivated and processed on the estate itself. Because the entire vineyard is located within a radius of less than 500 meters around the winery, the grapes can be processed almost immediately after harvest. This allows them to maintain the fruit in optimal conditions and produce the very best wines! In addition to quality, environmental concern is one of their primary focuses. To underscore their commitment, they have officially held the organic label for all their wines since 2016.
