Codorníu is the story of 18 generations of a family of winemakers. In 1872, Josep Raventós produced the first bottle of cava by applying the traditional method to the combination of the Penedès varieties: macabeo, xarel-lo and parellada. Codorníu reflects the history, tradition, passion and know-how of a family business with more than 450 years of history, which today remains a leader in quality wines and cavas. Its cellars in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia were declared a National Historic and Artistic Monument in 1976, as a key work of Catalan modernism by Puig i Cadafalch.
