Penedés MasterClass with Pepe Raventós

Join us for a rare opportunity to taste and learn alongside Pepe Raventós, the visionary behind Raventós i Blanc and Can Sumoi, two of Spain’s most compelling estates.

Rooted in a winemaking tradition that dates back over 500 years, the Raventós family has farmed their historic estate in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia since 1497—making it the longest documented viticultural lineage in the world. In 1872, Josep Raventós Fatjó crafted Spain’s first bottle-fermented sparkling wine from native grapes, a milestone that launched a new era in Spanish winemaking.

Today, Pepe Raventós honors that legacy while leading the charge in redefining sparkling wine with the creation of Conca del Riu Anoia, a rigorously specific appellation that emphasizes estate-grown fruit, native varieties, biodynamic practices, and a deep respect for land and climate. The result? Some of the most mineral-driven, authentic sparkling wines produced in the world today.

Alongside Raventós i Blanc, Pepe’s project Can Sumoi represents the new frontier of still wines and ancestral sparklers grown at high altitudes in the wild, rugged terrain of the Serra de l’Home mountains. With old vines, organic viticulture, and a philosophy of minimal intervention, Can Sumoi’s wines offer a raw, refreshing expression of Spain’s indigenous varietals like Montònega, Xarel·lo, and Sumoll.

In this MasterClass, guests will explore both estates through an expertly guided tasting with Pepe himself—gaining insight into centuries-old traditions, pioneering appellations, and the next generation of low-intervention winemaking.

Don’t miss this extraordinary tasting experience with one of Spain’s most influential vintners.
