About Torre del Veguer
The vineyards of this domain are all south-oriented and are situated close to the Mediterranean sea, on chalk-rich soils with a sandy structure. They also all surround the domain. This cuvee comes from the Vinya del Pou plot, planted in 1975. Since 2013, organic farming has been taking place here.
