The story of Bodegas Pinord started more than 150 years ago, when the Tetas family began to make wines on their estate at Sant Cugat Sesgarrigues from grapes they grew themselves and vinified in the traditional way. Since then, the wines produced by the family have been growing in prestige and the family name has become inseparably linked to the name of Penedés wine. In 1942 José Maria Tetas established the existing wine cellars at Vilafranca del Penedés, only 4 km from the original estate. At the present time, Pinord has facilities that can produce more than five million bottles a year, whilst retaining the family integrity and quality standards for which they have become well-known in the area. Today, three generations work together in the family business.

Grapes: 100% Merlot.

Origin: Coll de Bou Estate.

Vinification: The grapes were destalked and crushed and then left to macerate on their skins for 10 days before being pressed. Once the wine was clarified, it spent three months in new oak casks before being bottled and left to mature for three further months in the bottle.

Appearance: Brilliant crimson.

Taste: A youthful bouquet of red fruits and vanilla from barrel ageing. This wine has a fresh fruity palate with vanilla overtones.

Serve: At room temperature with roast or grilled red meats and a selection of cheeses
