Artesa
Raventós CodornÃu stands as the vanguard of Spain’s oldest family winery, tracing its origins back to 1551.
Seventeen successive generations of the family have bequeathed a legacy marked by innovation, from the eminent creators of Cava, CodornÃu, to the venerable Bodega BilbaÃnas, the oldest winery in Rioja.
The expansive Raimat estate commands the status of being the single largest vineyard in Europe, while the esteemed Legaris in Ribera del Duero and Scala Dei in Priorat contribute to the familial prestige.
From the elevated vineyards of Septima in Mendoza, Argentina, to the focal point of our narrative, Artesa, winemakers from each estate converge, interweaving a tapestry of collective expertise and a shared legacy of oenological distinction
Nestled within three miles of the San Pablo Bay, its strategic location provides an optimal cool, maritime climate, particularly conducive to the cultivation of pinot noir and chardonnay.
Spanning 150 acres, the vineyard unfolds along five distinct ridges, encompassing a diverse array of slopes and soils.
To navigate the intricacies of this complex terrain, we meticulously divide the vineyard into more than fifty individual blocks, tailoring our cultivation practices to the unique attributes of each block.
Our head wine maker is Paula Borgo, who has also been our winemaker at Septima Winery in Argentina for over 15 years.
