We interviewed Joan Munné, technical director of Raventós y Blanc, after his stay in New Zealand, where he has carried out harvest work for four weeks. An enriching experience both professionally and personally. He comes from a peasant family in the heart of the Penedès, in Sant Pere de Riudebitlles. He is the youngest of […]
The arrival of winter brings with it important tasks at our historic estate. Within the parameters of the sustainable viticulture practices we carry out (organic, biodynamic and regenerative), there are several works in which we have made some adjustments to minimize the effects of the drought. Among them, pruning, the application of compost or […]
This is what we dream about for our wine-growing area, a geographical area scattered with vineyards that are cared for and worked on with the utmost respect in accordance with ecological and sustainable viticulture. Where the farmer earns a good living. “What we have to achieve is to unite winemakers and wine-growers to work together […]
As Pepe Raventós says: “Making a great wine is an easier task than we tend to think.” And we all know that wine is made in the vineyard and the vineyard is where it all begins, but we are perhaps unaware – or not sufficiently aware – of all the work behind the scenes, everything […]
Going back to where Pepe and his family spent 5 winters in an incomparable setting: the New York Wine Experience, probably the most important wine event in the world. Just a year ago we were talking about natural wines, about the Raw Wine Fair and New York, the city that has stolen all our hearts. […]
The days just before the harvest days are almost like organizing a wedding. Looking up at the sky again and again, general excitement, an underlying feeling of nervousness that increases as the day gets closer. The most important task during the preceding days is to visit each plot to see the maturity level of the […]
The singularity of the geology of the Conca del Riu Anoia is what enables us to show off our wines just as they are: mineral and saline. The history of the soils from the Raventós i Blanc estate – framed in the geographic area of the Conca del Riu Anoia – not only contain the […]
A popular tradition which exists in several European countries, customary since ages past and carried out in an artisan way once a year, coinciding with the coldest months of winter, which provide the best possible conditions for manipulating the fat and meat from the pig. It continues today but is no longer performed like it […]
It’s winter; the time has come. The vine is asleep; all energy is directed towards the roots and the life is mainly found in the soil. The most intimate contact between man and nature occurs during pruning. Observe, breathe, walk around and sense, above all sense. Before we prune, we must first study the vineyard, […]
“Our work, basically, is like an artist’s. We strive to obtain the best possible grapes and wine from each plot.” This is how Pepe defines his passion, his work. This is how the harvest begins for us, finalizing sketches and creations, the most longed-for moment of the year. The moment when anything is possible. Just […]
