The wines of Celler Frisach
From battlefield to Catalan talent!
Celler Frisach has 200 years of heritage to tell. This family estate in Catalonia was taken over by two brothers, Francesc and Joan Ferré, in Corbera d’Ebre, facing landscapes that were the stage of the Battle of the Ebro during the Spanish Civil War. There they make Spanish wines full of character and complexity, yet with great freshness.
Let the Ferré brothers’ wines carry you away: they hide a very great Catalan story!
Celler Frisach, a historic estate
Francesc and Joan Ferré did not come from wine but from farming. They started making their own wines in 2004, then fully took over the family estate in 2009, eager to revive a potential forgotten by their ancestors.
They farm 40 hectares of vines in Terra Alta, in southern Catalonia. True to roots that go back 200 years, their priority is to protect the soils of Corbera d’Ebre. The vines are farmed organically, following the standards of the Catalan Council for Organic Agricultural Production (CCPAE), and the wines are made without sulphites, additives or artifice.
To show these landscapes in another light, the estate also offers a “Vins a la trinxera” (wines in the trench) route, weaving together the history of the place and today’s vineyards.
The vineyards of Terra Alta
In a contrasting landscape of vines, hills and ruins, Joan and Francesc mainly grow Grenache, the king grape of Terra Alta, in all its colours: black, white, grey and even Grenache Peluda. There is also Carignan, as well as Syrah and Merlot. The wines are aged in oak barrels, concrete or stainless-steel tanks depending on the cuvée.
The cuvées of Celler Frisach
Francesc and Joan Ferré treat us to complex wines full of character, yet incredibly fresh and easy to drink.
L’Abrunet blanc is a white Grenache of stunning freshness thanks to high-altitude vines: the perfect little white.
Vernatxa comes from old white Grenache vines made the Burgundian way, with barrel ageing that brings more richness and gourmandise.
Les Alifares is a grey Grenache macerated for 21 days then aged in stainless steel: freshness and beautiful bitterness.
Sang de Corb blends Grenache, Grenache Peluda and Carignan: an airy, elegant red with fine, silky tannins.
We have also enjoyed offering L’Abrunet red and rosé, L’Anit, a superb expression of Carignan, and La Foradada.
