Clos Lentiscus¹

About

Clos Lentiscus is a biodynamic winery located inside the Garraf Natural Park south of Barcelona. Run by Manel Avinyó and his family, the estate focuses on indigenous Catalan varieties such as Sumoll, Xarel·lo and Malvasia de Sitges. The vineyards are farmed biodynamically near the Mediterranean coast and the wines are made with minimal intervention, often bottled without added sulphur. Clos Lentiscus is particularly known for natural sparkling wines made using ancestral methods as well as distinctive still wines from old vines.
