A family cellar among the vines
A family cava cellar active since 1993, on the outskirts of Sant Sadurní, on the BP-2151 road. It works two estates in the Bitlles valley: Ribalta, in Sant Sadurní, on a north-facing slope, and Clot de la Serra, in Torrelavit, a hillock surrounded by Mediterranean forest with small plots of old macabeo. The house varieties are the Penedès whites, macabeo and xarel·lo. The cellar is dug into the rock, 26 metres underground. The family also has a second cellar in the Priorat.
What to do there
The main thing is the visit with a tasting of its cavas, by reservation. At weekends there are visits at 10:00 and 17:00; on weekdays they are held on request. The Penedès tourist office also lists activities for children.
Around the cellar is La Carmeta, the house's wine-tourism space, among the vines: a wine bar with tapas and small plates to go with a glass, designed both for a sunset aperitif and a winter weekend lunch. Also there is Umbra, the gastronomic restaurant, with a seasonal menu and a menu of local produce and Catalan cooking, and El Celleret de la Carmeta, the shop, with its wines, cavas, special bottles and canned wine. For family celebrations and company meetings it rents out the space.
How to book and get there
The visit, a table at Umbra and La Carmeta are booked online from its website, on 628 22 15 14 or by email. Without an appointment there is no visit.
It is at kilometre 10.5 of the BP-2151, outside the town: you need to go by car or taxi. If you come by train, the Rodalies R4 stops at Sant Sadurní and from there the last stretch is by road. Before or after, in the town you have the Sant Sadurní Cava Centre.
What to order: a tasting of its cavas at the cellar, by reservation.
