Old Vineyards around the Winery

The name Bell Cros is also the name of their wines. Bell stands for beautiful while Cros is Valley in the Catalan language. The vineyards in this area are small, and Bell Cros bought six nearby vineyards. Harvests are small, and the focus is on the quality of the grapes. Most of the vines here are 50 years old and form a special part of the company. The Mediterranean Sea influences the climate here. This works well with the soil and promotes viticulture here.

Production at the Winery

The main grapes grown here are Carinyena and Garnacha which are typical to the DO Montsant. These grapes form the backbone of the winery’s wine production and are used to make red, white, and rose wines. The vineyards are in the process of conversion into organic.
