Celler de Capcanes

The cooperative Celler de Capcanes was founded by five families back in 1933. The Spanish village of Capcanes lies hidden in the Priorato hills inland from Tarragona. Originally, the cooperative focused on bulk production.

Only in the 1990s did a chance encounter prompt a change of thinking, away from bulk production towards quality wines. The catalyst was a meeting with Barcelona's Jewish community and their wish for a kosher wine. Changes were needed to allow the identification, selection and vinification of smaller batches of high-quality grapes under a rabbi's supervision. This selection process proved successful, benefiting all the cooperative's wines, not just the kosher ones. The move towards greater quality also extended to the cellar, which was completely rebuilt, thoroughly reorganised and supplemented with a barrique cellar.

Today, two winemakers combine their talents at Capcanes. Anna Rovira is the kind, highly experienced guiding spirit of the vineyards and cellar, while Jürgen Wagner creates the wines' style and blends. The cooperative's continuing positive development shows that Capcanes not only supplies the raw material for excellent wines but, above all, employs people willing to make the very best of it.
