Empordàlia
Our Story
At Empordàlia we have been making quality wines and oils from our own fields in the Alt Empordà and Baix Empordà regions of Catalonia for over 40 years. Over the years we have striven to improve our methods, using late-generation technologies to give our products the quality they now boast. Our vineyards and our olive trees have always grown under the influence of the north wind known as the Tramuntana, having become acclimatised to this punished landscape of rocky, slate-filled soil, transformed by farming, wind, rain, sun and drought. We currently grow 350 hectares of vineyards and 500 of olive trees, and we make and sell wine and extra virgin olive oil. The Co-operative was founded in 1961, but did not begin to market finished products until 1988. The brands currently on the market, under the Empordà denomination of origin, include wines such as Vinya Verdera and Sinols and the extra virgin olive with protected designation of origin Empordà "Oli de Pau". The two wine brands include red, rosé, white, Moscatell and Garnatxa. Now a co-op with 250 partners from the Alt Empordà and Baix Empordà regions, Empordàlia arose in 2005 from the merger between the Pau i Roses and the Vilajuïga co-operatives (the Agrícola de Pau co-operative, founded in 1961, and the El Celler de Roses co-operative, founded in 1954, had previously merged in 1986). We hope you enjoy the aromas and flavours of these exquisite products.
