Can Feixes

Cantina e Vini

On the slopes of the mountains that separate the comarcas of Penedès and Anoia, in the extreme north-west of Alt Penedes on the high lands of Cabrera and Mediona, the Can Feixes estate goes quietly about its business of respect for tradition and terroir. Can Feixes is a family business, with an eye to the long view. Limited production enables us to respect our convictions about the responsible use of our land and its wider environment. The intense care required to produce wines of the highest quality and character may limit our scope for growth, but it accords perfectly with our beliefs about this landscape of which we act, briefly, as stewards for generations to come.

Here, at an altitude of 400mts, the vines are subject to more extreme thermal conditions which result in a slower ripening of the fruit. This yields grapes of greater concentration with a more harmonious, velvety constitution. The soil is chalk clay and quite rocky, but with certain capacity to retain water. Together, climate and soil might be seen as adverse limiting factors. In fact, they are anything but. The combination results in a lower yield, but of grapes with a singular character and exceptional quality. It also lends itself perfectly to the cultivation of the ideal varieties of Parellada, Macabeo, Malvasia de Sitges, Chardonnay, Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot Pinot Noir and petit Verdot. From these, and exclusively from our own vineyards, we produce a range of finely crafted wines and cavas.
