Raventós i Blanc

The Raventós family has been growing vines in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia since 1497; one of their ancestors was also responsible for Spain's first traditionally made sparkling wine in 1872. In 1986, Josep Maria Raventós i Blanc founded the present-day estate, which his grandson Pepe Raventós has run since 2001. In 2012, the estate left the DO Cava and has since produced its sparkling wines under its own designation of origin, Conca del Riu Anoia. The estate is organically certified and farmed biodynamically, using horse-drawn ploughing, mixed cropping and its own livestock.
