About Albet i Noya
Albet i Noya is a family estate in Sant Pau d’Ordal, in the municipality of Subirats, one of the historic centres of Penedès. The family originally worked vineyards here as tenant farmers. In 1978, at the request of a Scandinavian customer, the estate began farming organically. This places Albet i Noya among the pioneers of organic viticulture in Spain. Organic certification and work in its own vineyards remain central to the producer’s approach.
The vineyards are in Penedès, southwest of Barcelona, where altitude, Mediterranean influence and varied soils create considerable diversity. Summers are warm and dry, yet higher parcels and cooling airflows help grapes retain freshness. Albet i Noya works with regional varieties such as Xarel-lo, Macabeo and Parellada, alongside international grapes including Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Pinot Noir.
Its range illustrates the breadth of Penedès. Approachable white, rosé and red wines, including Petit Albet, Lignum and Curiós, focus on pure fruit and ease of drinking. Curiós Xarel-lo puts a characterful local white grape in the foreground, while the red Clàssic Ull de Llebre uses the Catalan name for Tempranillo. Wines such as Finca La Milana, Martí Reserva and 3 Macabeus de Can Milà place greater emphasis on origin, selection and structure.
Sparkling wine is important as well. Petit Albet Brut and other bottles in the Clàssic Penedès category belong to the region’s traditional-method sparkling culture, internationally associated above all with Cava. Clàssic Penedès has its own rules, including organic grape growing and bottle ageing. Albet i Noya is therefore best known for organically produced Penedès wines in which local grapes, freshness and a clear sense of place are central.
