From Alella Wine Tours we can offer a wide variety of activities in some of the wineries that form the D.O. Alella. Each of these wineries has a history behind that makes it unique and different from the rest and in addition, each winery works their wine in a special way that makes their wines extraordinary.
Alta Alella is the culmination of a family project that began more than twenty years ago with Josep Maria Pujol-Busquets and
his wife Cristina Guillen, when they acquired the nineteenth-century estate Can Genis, located 2 km from the Mediterranean Sea between the towns of Alella and Tiana. It’s the closest cellar to Barcelona and it’s organic wines are
in the menus of some of the best restaurants of the world.
From the beginning, in this modern cellar, the organic agriculture and the respect for the environment and nature
have been the basis for making wines and cavas in the DO Alella and DO Cava, with the will for transparency, being a true reflection of the terrain and the vintage.
Alta Alella is opened to the world and has a clear vocation for enoturism. Wine is a part of an area identity, and in this unique wine environment everyone can enjoy a wide range of wine activities.
"Live the tradition, experience innovation"
Under this motto is born Bouquet de Alella, the adventure that the Cerdá brothers undertook in 2010, marked by family tradition.
Playing with the name of the family farm-Can Boquet- and the term bouquet, the French word that designates the aromas of wine, Bouquet de Alella is born to promote the production and sale of quality organic wines and the promotion of Wine experiences with a firm commitment to wine tourism 15 km from Barcelona.
The winery is located inside the beautiful 14th century farmhouse (Can Boquet) located next to the town of Alella and surrounded by vineyards. The tradition of space coexists with the latest technological advances in order to achieve limited production of quality organic wines with a lot of personality.
To elaborate a wine, the grapes are selected manually in the vineyard, the presses are soft taking advantage of only the flower must and the fermentation is done at controlled temperature to get a better vinification.
Caves Parxet are located in the town of Tiana and belong to the appellation of Origin Alella. In its origins Roman population was namedTitiana (as one of the Cavas of the cave).
In 1920 the Family Suñol launched the development of wine as the "Champagne", but Parxet, which already was
being prepared, came from the eighteenth century. The name of Parxet comes from the French: "parchet", which means "small piece of vine" without doubt a name choice for a Appellation of origin based on small vineyards, now scattered
among houses and residential areas in the coastal Serralada.
Parxet has around 200 hectares of vineyards divided between the municipalities of Sta. Maria de Martorelles, Montornès del Vallès, SantFost of Campsentelles, Alella and
Roca del Vallès. The varieties are planted mainly Pansa Blanca. We also find the Macabeu and Parellada. These are all varieties of medium or long cycle. It has also been successfully introduced the Chardonnay
and Pinot Noir, which are short-cycle varieties. The system driving the vineyard is to espaldera or emparrado.

A cellar buried in the center of a farm, three hectares in size, planted on slopes and terraces of stony terrain, with south-east orientation.
