Half-way between the Montseny Massif and the Pyrenees, Sau Valley and Collsacabra Plateau is a complex landscape, most known for its cliff faces, abundant water and isolated villages, rich in legends. This is a landscape where nature exerts a hypnotic effect on the visitor and that, once seen, alwys stays with you. If you visit the area, part of your heart will remain here forever!

With a coastline of 40 kilometres, it’s easy to see why everything in Maresme revolves around the sea. Not only does the sea feature in the region’s name (mar means “sea” in Catalan), but also the architectural, culinary and natural heritage of the area is marked by the endless crashing of the waves. So get ready! In this part of the world, passion doesn’t hide behind a mask.

To enter the domains of the Penedès DO is to open oneself up to a world of sensations where everything is possible. You can taste the elixir extracted from the xarel·lo grape variety, smell the numerous species of medicinal plants, enjoy a waterfall and thrill to the sight of a human tower being crowned by the enxaneta (typically, a child of about five years old). Accompany us on this route through Alt Penedès, a land that leaves its mark.
