The Penedès Denomination of Origin is constantly evolving, with wineries experimenting with new varieties and production techniques to offer increasingly innovative and higher quality wines. Not only in the production of white and sparkling wines, but also through its reds.
And there is no doubt that in this Denomination, one of the most important in the country both in terms of production and quality, red wines also play an essential role.
And this is precisely what Gourmet La Vanguardia has wanted to claim through its Special Selection of DO Penedès reds, with which they reveal three essential proposals for the wine cellar of any home. Let’s discover them.
