CANALS NADAL
Antoni Canals Nadal’s winery was born from the desire to continue the Penedès family winemaking tradition

HERITAGE
In the 80’s, Antoni Canals Nadal decided to make his own cavas. Together with his sons, among them the oenologist Joan M. Canals Bosch, they started a small production in the winery. Previously, the family produced base wines for other producers and worked as coopers, producing hand-made barrels. The family cellar is located in the small village of El Pla del Penedès.
Antoni Canals has been linked to the world of wine since his childhood: his grandfather, Miquel Nadal, and his father, Pau Canals, had a cooperage workshop and a cellar for the preparation of cava-based wines and their marketing, an activity that dates back to the 19th century.

In our current cellar, we want to preserve this family heritage and produce quality products, maintaining the tradition, using the native varieties combined with a commitment to innovation and bold blends.

We basically work with the native and traditional varieties of the Penedès: Macabeu, Xarel·lo, and Parellada. Our aim is to create cavas and quality wines with defined and unique PERSONALITY.
We make both traditional blends, as well as fun innovate monovarietal cavas and daring combinations, while always respecting the production process. We remain faithful to the traditional way of working, essential to obtaining the highest quality sparkling wines.
