We've been traveling around checking out wine areas that are close to us. Gandesa is the principal town in D.O. Terra Alta and is about 30 minutes away. There are several spectacular wine cooperatives around here that were built early last century. We also went to Penedes which is the largest D.O. in Catalunya. Torres and a few huge cava producers dominate the area. It's really pretty and planted wall-to-wall with grapevines.
As you can see, our vineyard is progressing. I've been fighting the birds with some success. They like Finca Vieja because it's close to their roosting area in town. I've been going to the vineyard every evening to chase them around for a few hours.
