VINS DE PEDRA
Vins de Pedra is a small winery runned by the young winemaker Marta Pedra Stone and produces high quality wines with denomination of origin Conca de Barbera.
The wines are elaborated with different grape varieties: Parellada, Trepat, Tempranillo and Grenache.
In addition, there is a wide offer of enoturism experiences in one of the medieval towers of the Montblanc wall, the Tasting Tower.
Vins de Pedra is a personal project from Marta Pedra. It is also a re-encounter with her origins. The smell of the winery during the fermentation of the wines, the red hands stained with wine, the frenzied noise of the bottles being labelled … All these sensations are coming back again for this young oenologist. Her great-grandfather was an oenologist from the region of Tarragona. He travelled from winery to winery, tasting some wines from this tank or that barrel. This passion for the vines and wine seems to have been passed down silently from one generation to another, until it re-emerged in Marta.
As a child she already felt a wild emotion, while walking between the rows of the vines, when the grapes started to sweeten or the first leaves of the autumn were falling down. Therefore and as times goes along, she has been shaping her way. After she immersed in books of oenology and wine growing, stained her hands in more than one winery from the wine region Conca de Barbera, Marta has accomplished her dream. Her winery is not the most beautiful one, neither the biggest. It also has not the glamour of some others, but it is surely the most wished winery of them all and Vins de Pedra it is called.
