THE SOLO VIDA VINEYARDS
The Solo Vida vineyards are a sacred place, a hidden gem, far away from daily lives. Nature embraced these beautiful vineyards in the mountains for centuries, a mysterious 10th century castle full of old stories oversees the growth of the grapes year after year.
Next to the purest nature, family tradition lies at the core of the Solo Vida vineyards. Old documents show that the first farmhouse was built around 1358 and descendants are still guarding the old family traditions of growing & harvesting the most precious grapes.
Unique in the world is a long-standing alliance between 35 different viticultural families living in the +500 area. Generations ago a pact was made between them to treat all vineyards in the +500 area with the same principles, respect and passion.
Today, more than ever, this place is a secret symbol for ecology & unity and should be cherished.
The combination of nature, altitude, sunshine, and traditions make the Solo Vida vineyards one of the most unique vineyards in the world.

Cared for with love
The traditional production process of Solo Vida is slow and magical as Solo Vida Reserva has a minimum aging of 18 months. It's also entirely manual - a true form of craftsmanship and authenticity, from harvest to labelling, cared for with love.
Made with the finest quality grapes
Solo Vida is the result of combining 4 grape varieties: Chardonnay, Macabeo, Xarel•lo and Parellada - all of them come from old vineyards that guarantee the excellence of their fruits and complement each other to result in a sparkling wine with its own personality.
THE CELLAR
True craftsmen in the disgorgement process manually remove the lees from the aging of the wine at a cool, natural temperature in the cellars.
This artisanal craft is carried out exclusively by skilled hands.
