When we first planted our vineyards in the early 80s, we chose a unique place, just 3 km from the Mediterranean Sea at the “Pla de Mar”, where our vineyards now enjoy a very special microclimate in the DO Penedes thanks to the sea breezes which, due a process of thermical inversion, promote a correct grape maturation and its good health. These vineyards have an old tradition: between them there are remains of the most famous Roman way, the Via Avgvsta, that started in Rome and finished in the south of Spain crossing the most important cities of the Mediterranean coast. For all these reasons, we have wanted tribute to this Roman way, naming our winery and our wines Avgvstvs.
