The Winery
The first bottles of Parxet Cava were launched in 1920, made using the méthode champenoise in the very same place that wines have been made since the 18th Century. Parxet is now a leading winery in the production of artisanal cavas, the largest producer in the D.O. Alella (in the province of Barcelona). It celebrated its first centenary as an icon of tradition and quality, as well as being recognised as a pioneer in the production of cavas using the Pansa Blanca grape variety.
