Capcanes

Cellar de Capcanes Montsant is in the village of Capcanes, in the region of Tarragona, 100 miles southwest of Barcelona. Traditionally a grape-growing village, Capcanes growers formed a cooperative in 1933 and for the next 60 years sold their wine in bulk. But in 1995 the Jewish community of Barcelona asked the Capcanes cooperative to make a kosher wine, and that successful project led to overall improvements in village winemaking. And it inspired the cooperative to start bottling its own wines. Today the cooperative makes kosher and non-kosher wines including Carignan, Garnacha, Pinot Noir, Garnacha blanca and blends. Jancis Robinson has written that “Capcanes is a quality-driven cooperative…The wine is modern in style, hedonistic, easy-to-enjoy, juicy and super pleasant.”
