This team - Joan and Teresa

Joan and Teresa are the soul of Carol Valles. They started the adventure. They forced her to be born with effort and sacrifice, and years later they reaped their rewards. Joan Carol, leading her and Theresa Valles, is always by her side.

Joan, after a long tradition of making cava for the family, decided to start her marketing in 1996. Always with the same philosophy: a long time aging cava and following the traditional method. He was the one who led the winery for the past 21 years. Who endowed her with a unique personality that characterizes Carol Valles: respect for nature, patience in development and respect for the territory.

Teresa, a school teacher, was always with Joan. Do what was necessary. Fitting, going to fairs, cleaning bottles until late at night, developing labels or accepting orders in private homes and commercial premises.

This team - Joan and Teresa - created what is now called Carol Valles.

In the history of the Yellow Road, this is not the first time a special guest has appeared. So one guest was from Sicily, a producer of unique olive oil. One guest from Tuscany: olive oil and a school of culinary excellence. The producer of red wine from Gorgana (Italy), who would like to produce white, but the grapes are not the same. But our guest today has white wine. And this wine even has yellow-green notes. But all the wines at the Cellers Carol Walles winery are sparkling. Therefore, to begin with, we decided to arrange a meeting with this Spanish winery under the heading: Special guests.

Why do you produce only sparkling wines?

(the representative of the winery "Cellers Carol Walles" Nil Surià answers my question)

We are a very small cellar focused on the production of very long aged high quality cavas. The fact that we focus on this very specific type of wines has one main reason: our wine region has a very old tradition of producing cava. This type of sparkling was very typically produced by farmers for their own consumption with the vines owned by the family. With time, this very artisanal wines ended up being commercialized. In our cellars, we try to keep this artisanal origins, keeping many manual processes. The aim to produce high quality artisanal cavas make it necessary to focus on a very specific product.
