Winery
The Suriol family are farmers who live in the farmhouse of the Castle of Grabuac and thanks to the work of the land, the elaboration of wine and its commercialization all over the world we give meaning to the cultivation of an ancient estate that wants to become a reflection of the most traditional Penedès .
The current oenologist, Assís Suriol, a graduate in pharmacy and oenology, has inherited the knowledge passed down from previous generations to which he has incorporated the audacity that gives a solid training to radicalize the commitment to make increasingly natural wines from 'an increasingly careful elaboration and a work of the vineyard more and more respectful with the earth and the plant.
All this tradition leads us to the elaboration of products of maximum organoleptic and nutritional quality through the use only of the most traditional grape varieties fermented with their own natural yeasts. After resting and raising properly, we obtain a round product that, once in the glass, retains the typicality of our area, the Penedès.
