Tasting Note
Producer
The company of Familia Ferrer was established as recently as 2018 by José Maria Ferrer and his wife, Suzanna, although the family claim a long and well-documented existence in the region. Owners of the farm La Freixeneda since the 12th century, they have been making wine in Mediona within the Alt Penedès since 1616.
The story really started when José Maria’s maternal great-great-grandfather married into a family of barrel-makers in Sant Sadurnì d’Anoia. As part of the production process, the coopers would ‘condition’ the barrels with wine, which was then sold off, alongside the finished casks. Such was the wine’s popularity that the family decided to convert the cooperage into a winery and established 20 hectares of vineyards.
The firm of Can Sala (‘Can’ which translates as ‘house’ in Catalan) was created in 1861.
