ALTA ALELLA in Mataro

Nice, beautiful blace. Wine tasting and introducing fine. Wines were good

És un espai meravellós on pots descobrir el vi duna denominació tan important per Catalunya i per Espanya com ho és la D.O. Alella.Els serveis que ofereixen, a part dun vi duna qualitat excel·lent, garanteix una vetllada fantàstica tant amb amics com en família. Pots gaudir duna copa aconsellada pels seus professionals denoturisme envoltat de vinyes velles lleugerament pentinades per la brisa marina que puja muntanya amunt des del mar que es veu a lhoritzó.A nosaltres ens va atendre en Francesc, un professional de lofici evocat totalment dins la professió dEnoturisme. Que professionals com ell puguin acompanyar-te i engrandir les sensacions de lexperiència és un art que, personalment, agraeixo en fer aquesta ressenya.Una experiència 100% recomanable que tomple dorgull en pensar que ho tens tan a prop de Barcelona, que la seva agricultura és totalment ecològica i que el vi que en surt dallà, forma part duna herència delicadament cuidada any rere any.El gust del vi acaba sent subjectiu per cada persona, però de què en pots estar ben segur, és que darrere cada gota daquest preuat "suc de raïm", hi ha dedicació, esforç, llegat i passió per lofici que acaba donant nom a la denominació.Un plaer haver-hi pogut ser.

Visita al celler amb tast de 4 excel·lents vins. Caves increïbles, vins blancs i negres extraordinaris. Aquest és un celler petit però que cuida molt bé el producte i la terra. Molt recomanable!

Beautiful location, nice wines, informative.

Era tanto tempo che volevamo visitare Alta Alella che abbiamo scoperto qualche anno fa tra le proposte della nostra vinoteca preferita di Barcellona. La loro selezione di cava è notevole qualitativamente, dal Laietà al Mirgin sia Exeo che Opus. Prenotiamo la visita per un venerdì di agosto per 35 euro a testa, incluso degustazione di 4 vini e abbinamento con jamon. La giornata era molto calda e abbiamo apprezzato l’acqua che ci è stata offerta all’arrivo. Il giro per la tenuta, piccola ma bella, é abbastanza rapido con una gradita sosta anche nella cantina dove tengono le riserve. La ragazza ha dato una spiegazione abbastanza basica della Bodega e del vigneto, per le nostre abitudini. Poi degustazione finale sotto il pergolato all’aperto con un caldo infernale (pensavamo l’avremmo fatta all’interno del locale climatizzato). Il jamon, che doveva essere in abbinamento al vino, è arrivato che stavamo finendo il secondo vino e, per 70 euro in 2, ci è sembrata una porzione un po’ scarsa. Per quanto riguarda i vini assaggiati, sempre ottimo il Laietà, mediocri gli altri vini provati.

Great place for a visit. Famous for their cava. 50+ acres under vine. Staff here are very friendly. You need to book, and theres a variety of tour levels available. Highly recommended if you are in Alella, orthe Barcelona area.

Un 10. Xavi nos atendió muy amablemente con buenas explicaciones de los vinos, los cuales estaban todos muy buenos. Una terraza preciosa con vistas a las viñas. Nos queda pendiente visitar la bodega

Highly recommend this place... We booked the tour and wine tasting, everybody was very nice, we learned some interesting information and the tasting of 4 wines definetely didnt disappoint. Great deal for the price which was only 20€/person. Would visit again.

👍

We really enjoyed our wine tasting. Outstanding service! Our server was very knowledgeable, made great recommendations, and answered all of our questions. The location is very picturesque. We tried 5-6 different wines. We really enjoy when we taste a wine like nothing weve ever had before, and Alta Alella delivered! We had some very interested dessert wines, and even an orange wine!While we stopped by without a reservation, I would recommend calling or emailing ahead to book one. It seemed that we were a bit lucky that we were able to do a tasting at the time we arrived.

Incredible experience. Very friendly staff.The Cava was truly 1st class.We cannot wait to visit again.

Fantastic winery. Great wine selection and experience. They also accepted our small dog which was a great plus while enjoying a glass of wine on the terrace.

Great peoe!!! Very gentle!!!! And goog wines and cava!!!!!

Enjoyed the wine and the tour. Good explanation about the different types of grapes and wines.

So nice ! The views and the wine bar !

Visitamos las bodegas de Alta Alella en la visita con degustación de 4 vinos. Fue una experiencia fantástica y muy recomendable. La visita muy bien explicada y distendida de una duración adecuada. Respecto a la degustación no hay vino, cava o espumoso que no sea excelente por lo que es la ocasión perfecta para probar diferentes vinos y cavas y escoger los de tu gusto para comprarlos.

Muy buena experiencia en un entorno precioso. Xavi nos atendió de maravilla y nos explicó cada detalle de la producción de esta bodega. Tienen variedades de vinos y cavas de muy alto nivel. Muy recomendable, repetiremos!!

Fuimos por la mañana para hacer un tour y una cata de vinos. Las vistas desde la bodega son increíbles, toda la gente es súper amable y el tour y cata muy informativos y divertido con Xavi! Y claro, las cavas deliciosos y diferentes :-)100% recomendable!

Exceptional. I cannot thank Xavi enough. This location will now always hold a special place in our hearts. With the help of Xavi, it was the perfect spot for my proposal. Me (Eliotand my now fiancé (Annieare truly so grateful for the service provided. Proposal aside, Xavi is extremely knowledgeable and provided a first class experience. Thank you. We hope to return soon!

The staff was incredibly nice and adaptable, they made the tour in English without having been warned beforehand. The scenery is amazing with the sea behind the vineyard.The tasting was of really good quality, outstanding wines and we tasted 5 different bottles of this family owned business.I truly recommend this tour&tasting and I’ll repeat with other friends.

Top winery that produce incredible organic and natural Wines and Cavas. It is a must visit if staying in Barcelona, very close and worth the visit and tasting.

I unfortunately can only speak to their wines/tasting, and not their full tour. I was scheduled for a tour at 11am and I left on time for the tour. However, once I got to the stop off the train, I was unable to fine a taxi for about 45 minutes to get to the winery, so I highly recommend, if youre able to, to drive here. The property is beautiful, and I arrived in time for the tasting. Their Brut was phenomenal and I also enjoyed a lot of their white and red wines. Since I missed my tour, they did comp my drinks I had after the tour which was very nice! Hopeful to return and experience the full thing!

Frances was a great guide , excelent tasting

Scenic spot, lovely terrace area. Great staff, helpful, welcoming and knowledgeable on the wines. Wine tasting delicious and DJ at sunset extra touch.

Easily our favorite winery nearby Barcelona, with great views, modern architecture, very friendly English speaking staff, and most importantly delicious local wines and cava.

👌😍

Very professional wine tasting, very nice place. And cream on the cake, the wine is excellent!

Wonderful tour of the vineyards, production facilities, and wine tasting. Very detailed, very engaging (even for someone who isn’t knowledgeable and was honestly confused by a lot of the terminology, aka me). I was in awe of the views the entire time and I felt that all of the production and guest facility areas were clean and ... aesthetically pleasing to say the least. Every part of the experience was pleasurable and stress free. The tour guide was perfectly fluent in English and I literally couldn’t complain about anything that I experienced. 10/10 would recommend tbh. If you’re wondering whether or not you should go to this vineyard tour or just to buy from here, DO IT. Best wine I’ve ever consumed (low to zero sulfite wines are the norm and for me that made a huge difference between anything else I’ve ever tasted), best customer service and best wine tour I’ve experienced.

Great tour and tasting. The wines and cava are made with intention and excellent taste. The grounds are gorgeous. Highly recommended. We have been twice and will be back again with more guests.

Beautiful location, super informative tour and superb wines.

A wonderful local winery experience. The tour was intimate and informative as was the tasting. Giorgia, our guide was knowledgeable and really nice. They produce some great wines and cavas.

Great place staff very good and polite

Amazing winery, amazing cavas, amazing people. Landscape is really unique with impressive terraces and see views.

Nice and Good wines!

Great wines. Got wine tasting without a booking so that was nice.

I head a very warm welcome and a chance to tasted all wines produced in that Bodega.I recommend especially Cava de Paraje."This is a beautiful amphitheatre-shaped property overlooking the sea. It is located in Serralada de Marina Natural Park, just 19 kilometres from Barcelona. A family-owned venture, oenologist Josep María Pujol-Busquets founded it in 1991 and devoted himself to managing the vineyards organically from the very beginning.Alta Alella produces around 300,000 bottles a year, two-thirds cava and the rest still wines, and some 40% is regularly exported. The property comprises 17 hectares of vines planted on characteristic soils locally called sauló. The decomposed granite, without lime or organic matter, helps to give acidity to the wines. There’s a clear commitment to recover the local grapes Pansa Blanca (Xarel.loand Mataró (Monastrell or Mourvèdre), as well as to look into disease resistant plants that might lead to a minimum intervention both in the vineyard and in the winery. Other grapes grown are Macabeo, Parellada, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay (whiteand Syrah, Petit Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Garnacha (red). There’s also an old sloping vineyard (coster is the Catalan wordwhich was planted with the local grape Pansa Rosada in the 1950s.The range is really large and includes nearly 20 different wines. Especially outstanding are the Gran Reserva cavas presented in elongated-shaped bottles (finely linear on the palate, with long citric nuances); the Mataró (Mourvèdresweet reds made with grapes that have been over-ripened on the plant; and, as a novelty, the new range of natural wines with no sulphur at all, which includes two cavas (the Capsigrany Pansa Rosa is really original), two whites, a red, and a Mataró sweet red wine."From SPANISH WINE LOVERS websideAlta Alella has a visitors center located in the heart of the Serralada de Marina Natural Park, with spectacular views overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. An exclusive, welcoming place. Open every day for individuals, groups and companies.

Beautiful winery with beautiful views. You can easily get here by a bus from the centre of Barcelona and walk uphill to the winery for about 20 min. The tour was informative and the wine was tasty. We paid 20 euros per person, which I think is worth the money. I would recommend this place.

Very cute winery close to Barcelona. The wines were all very delicious and the tour was informative. I would say I am disappointed in the cost of the gastronomic tour as the prices were not clear and the cost is not very justifiable given the services received. Much better off to do the 20 EUR per person tour and skip out on the food.

Superb place!Our guide was a very proffesional and unbelivable beautiful girl!

Super interesting and knowledgeable tour in great English! And fabulous wines and cava!

We had a fantastic tour of this innovative and organic winery thanks to our excellent guide Nuria. We learnt about the terrior, the vines, different grapes cultivated, their installations, the wines and cavas theyre producing, a little bit about the owners and what food to pair with the wines ! Following a walk around the vines and inside the winery we tasted a range of wines (they have over 20 in total with a production of over 250,000 bottles per year ). All of the wines were delicious from the young white wine, crianza, red wines including an amazing syrah, a range of cavas & a sweet wine. The wine labels are interesting with many of the local birds featuring including the Hoopoe. We had an amazing time. The views looking towards the see are really nice too.

Nice winery with good tasting. Friendly staff with a nice outdoor space to drink wine and enjoy the view of the ocean. Good as a date or with a group of friends. Call ahead to make a reservation and enjoy.

Mol bo al cava

One of the best wineries Ive visited so far and very happy to bring my clients or my friends, because I can be sure that the visit and wine tasting will go smoothly and very interesting. The wines are AMAZING! Totally worth to go and to see and to taste!

Awesome time. So personable. Great wine.

We took an early morning tour (10:30amand there was only 1 other couple. It was super fun! Staff were really nice. A tour with 6 tastings for something like 20 euros? I thought that was a really decent price and the wines were delicious!! This was one of our favorite things that I did in (nearBarcelona. We had rented a car, so we drove. It may be harder to get to if you dont have your own transportation. I recommend calling ahead (we only called a day in advanceso that you can go during a tour time.

No words to describe it, you have to go and visit and see it for yourself, a must do when youre in Barcelona

Amazing place.

Beautiful wine ward, we had a great time with the visit of the domain. Wonderful view, great staff, very friendly and the wines are so delicious. Highly recommend this activity outside of Barcelona.

Incredible experience. Nice place, the sea, the country, the wine........100% recommendable!!!!
