About the Winemaker
Vinícola de Nulles, founded in 1917 in the village of Nulles in the Alt Camp comarca of Tarragona, Catalunya, is a historic cooperative winery born from the collective ambition of local vine growers to rebuild after the devastating phylloxera crisis.
The cooperative operates from a spectacular Modernista building designed by Cèsar Martinell, a disciple of Antoni Gaudí. Known as a 'Cathedral of Wine,' the structure features iconic parabolic arches built from local lime and clay, engineered to optimize light and temperature for winemaking. Declared Cultural Heritage of National Interest by the Autonomous Government of Catalonia in 2002, the cellar continues to benefit from Martinell's design, which allows the building to act as a thermal regulator for optimal aging conditions.
Farming & Cellar: The cooperative unites nearly 100 partners farming approximately 400 hectares across the Mediterranean landscape. Their guiding ethos: 'Loving and being passionate about the land are the essence of thorough work.' Under the Adernats brand, they pursue quality through proper vineyard work, organic certification, zero-dosage sparkling wines, and minimal sulfur additions. While 90% of production is base wine for cava, their own bottlings express the terroir of this millennial wine region.
