Castell d'Or

Castell d’Or is a group of Catalan cooperative wineries that share resources and winemaking expertise. Its roots lie in member cellars founded around the turn of the twentieth century, when growers organized in response to phylloxera and economic upheaval. The group now brings together sixteen cooperatives and more than 2,200 farming families working over 6,200 hectares of vineyard across Catalonia.

Several member wineries occupy Catalonia’s modernist “wine cathedrals.” Its Cavas are made from member-grown grapes from coastal and upland vineyards, with a second fermentation in bottle followed by cellar ageing.
