The Bodegas Pinord Estate
Bodegas Pinord is a family run and operated winery with a long winemaking tradition of over a hundred and fifty years, when the Tetas family started producing white and red wines in Sant Cugat de Sesgarrigues. Today, three generations are working side by side at the winery.
In 1942, Josep Tetas established the current Bodega in Vilafranca del Penedès, in the Catalonia region (D.O. Penedès), just four kilometers from the original estate. The name "Pinord" is derived from a "Pi del Nord" (pine of the north) which used to stand there.
Vilafranca del Penedès is located in between Barcelona and Tarragona, and is covered in the north by the Montserrat Mountains, and in the south by the coast of Sitges and Salou.
The Bodegas Pinord Vineyard
The vineyard measures 100 hectares (247 acres) and include the sites of Montanyans, El Serral and Coll de Bou.
The grapes grown are: Xarel.lo, Macabeo, Parellada and Chardonnay for the whites, and Tempranillo, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for the reds. Bodegas Pinord was the pioneer in the introduction of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in the Penedès region.
The soil types vary from clay, limestone to sand, and require that the vines are planted at different depths. The Mediterranean climate is mild in winter and summer, and the valleys in the south benefit from the little rainfall.

Deep ruby with violet hues. Lifted raspberry, red currant, mulberry and Satsuma plum, with floral notes of violets, lavender, crushed flowering herbs and anise, pepper and mace spice. A rich and intense palate of well defined, concentrated red fruits; red currant, cut plum and spicy wild berries, give way to crunchy mid palate, firm-edged velvety tannins and excellent length.
Review:
Aromas of black fruit and green tobacco with bark and wet-earth undertones, following through to a medium to full body, creamy tannins and a juicy, savory finish. Intense and balanced.
