The Vilarnau winery, close to the cosmopolitan city of Barcelona, specializes in artisanal production of high quality cavas, and shares its innovative, creative and dynamic character with Spain’s most avant-garde city.
The Vilarnau cavas date from 1949 and were originally located in the town center of Sant Sadurni D’Anoia, the heart of Cava. Vilarnau has been part of the González Byass group since 1982. The vineyards where the winery is currently located were bought in 1990 and the state of the art winery was inaugurated in 2005. The Vilarnau estate is situated 6km outside of Sant Sadurni D’Anoia in the highest point of the area Espiells, 200m above sea level. High altitudes contribute to a slower maturation of the grape, which produces wines with higher acidity contributing to a more balanced ageing.
5+5 stands for the five generation of the González who have led the company into 21st century, and for the next five generation who will continue a mission based on the good work done so far.
