AT Roca is a trailblazing and forward-thinking winery shaping the essence of Penedès through wines that beautifully capture a sense of place and define an evolving region.

Pedregar seduces you with its cool copper shade, adorned with very fine bubbles. Its clean aroma unveils nuances of stone fruit and citrus, elegantly set against a backdrop of pastry, gracefully extending to the palate. This wine impresses with its well-structured freshness, creamy texture and lingering finish. 

Pedregar is made with Grenache grapes. The grapes were hand harvested from 40 year old vines in an organically farmed vineyard within the Costers de l’Anoia sub-zone. This wine is made using the Traditional Method of sparkling i.e. the same process used in the Champagne region. It’s labour intensive because it requires 2 rounds of fermentation (one to make the wine, the other for the bubbles). The base wine was fermented and aged for 7 months. Following the second fermentation, this wine gracefully matured in the bottle for 5 years, resting on its fine lees, imparting the delightful party and brioche flavours that distinguish it. 

AT Roca crafts 3 different ranges of Cavas, all with zero dosing (Brut Nature), and varied by grapes, vineyard sourcing and aging times.
