The winery

Cercavins

Winery founded in 2003 in Verdú (Urgell), within the Costers del Segre DO and the Vall del Riu Corb subzone. Three partners with a background in grape growing set it up, and today they farm around 90 hectares. The climate is arid, with little rain and a sharp swing between day and night temperatures that helps preserve aroma and acidity. Ageing is done in French, American and Hungarian oak.
