Ten wineries from the DO Pla de Bages will take part in the largest edition of Barcelona Wine Week (BWW) at the beginning of April with the aim of projecting the Bages product and quality at a national and international level. At a time of expansion in the territory of the DO, three more wineries than the last edition of 2020, join the fair in order to gain visibility and open to the world as a winery and as an exceptional and unique wine territory .

Around 60 Designations of Origin and 650 wineries are taking part in this second edition, which focuses on sustainability, international business and digitalisation as major avenues for the future.

Within the fair you will be able to know, taste and explore a large part of the wine proposals of each winery together with its wine tourism offer related to the DO Pla de Bages Wine Route.

The participating wineries are: Collbaix – Celler el Molí, Heretat Oller del Mas, Mond Obert, Abadal, Celler Cooperatiu d’Artès, Les Acàcies, Sanmartí, Exibis, Grau i Grau and Entrebosc. You can find them in Hall 8, Stand 244.

First, on Tuesday 5th at 2.30pm, journalist and sommelier Sílvia Cullell, editor of the Bullipedia wine section and member of the DO tasting panel and Joan Soler, winemaker and president of the DO Pla de Bages, there will be a presentation-tasting “Identity of Bages through its varieties”. Presentation and tasting of five wines. A journey through different varieties to tell the history and unique wine heritage that is the inspiration for the present and future of a territory where wine is cultivated.

On the other hand, the same Tuesday at 10 am: “La Mandó, a relevant variety to face the challenges of the future?” with the participation of Miquel Palau, Abadal’s winemaker.

The BWW was originally scheduled to be held in February and was postponed due to the pandemic. This has made this edition coincide with the Food Fair and the B-travel tourism show also in Barcelona. This coincidence makes us expect a very good influx of professional public at this fair. You can find more information on the web: barcelonawineweek.com
