Behind Josep 1952 is a rich family history of artisan winemaking and organic viticulture. For generations, the Ventosa-Mañé family has passed down the tradition of winemaking with dedication to ecological and innovative processes to produce top quality D.O. Cava. It was in 1952 that the family planted their first vineyard on the estate in Penedès. Passion, innovation, and respect for organic winemaking is what sets Josep 1952 apart as one of the finest producers in Penedès. This bottling has zero dosage.
