Mas Candi

Penedes

Ramon Jané broke 500 years of family tradition in 2006 by vinifying a portion of his grapes with his wife Mercè Cuscó and best friend/oenologist Toni Carbó as Mas Candí—they had always sold their crop to large cava producers.  They remain grape growers first, farming biodynamically on the inland edge of the Garraf massif and crafting their wines in the vineyard.  Over centuries of tasting, the Jané family has tailored their farming to focus on indigenous xarel•lo, which grows best in their living calcareous clay soils.
