January the 9th of 2023, after having received the distinction “Vi de Finca Qualificada” Vinyes d’Olivardots appeared on a regional television channel (TV3) as a reference winery of the D.O. Empordà.

It is the 14th Catalan wine qualified with this award and also the 1st wine from the D.O. Empordà with this prestigious distinction.

This wine comes from a hundred-year-old plot (1909), named “Hort d’en Riera”, a vineyard to which the winemaker has always opted enhance its expression of this variety, soil and its territory, the winemakers Carme and Carlota, have worked hard to ensure the highest standards and quality of this wine up to the utmost detail.
