"Oriol Artigas actually came to winegrowing serendipitously. He originally wanted to be a chemist (ala Jules Chauvet), but after working a harvest in Penedès, Oriol realized that a career in a laboratory wasn’t for him and enrolled in an enology program soon after. His over-arching philosophy is to “cultivate the vineyards in the most natural and least interventionist way possible, to allow the grapes to express in the most intense way the landscape from which they come.” - Jose Pastor (the importer)

100% Pansa Blanca from his 73 year old east facing, Santa Maria vineyard. They're planted on granitic sand and gneiss at 150-185 meters in elevation. 10 day whole bunch fermentation in stainless steel. The wine is then rested for 10 months on the gross lees.
