Five generations of farmers.
In 1903, during the phylloxera crisis, Joan Albet i Rovirosa arrived in Penedès and set to work the vineyards on the Can Vendrell de la Codina estate, in Sant Pau de Ordal. And there it stayed. For five generations, the Albet family, landlords from Can Vendrell, have cultivated, loved and watched the vines grow that are now protagonists of these wines.
But with this they did not have enough and, at the end of the 70s, they began to work organic farming. Nobody 'had ever heard of organic wines. But curiosity won and that's how he launched into the adventure.

The winery is modernist, designed by Josep Maria Pericas in 1925. In recent years, Albet i Noya has been expanding and modernizing the facilities with the Xapallà winery, built in 2004, where they are bottled and aged. red wines, and the winery of the Era, equipped with the most cutting-edge and respectful technology, where the highest range of Albet i Noya is produced exclusively and separately. New vineyards have also been acquired, such as the Finca de Can Milán, in Lavern, or the estate of Can Simó, in the Mediona area.

Elaboration:

Fermentation of an ace in stainless steel from Sauvignon Blanc and Xarel.lo and a month in Chardonnay boots. It stabilizes and is lightly filtered before bottling. Aging, 2 months of boot for the Chardonnay and battonage of their mothers.
