Turó d’en Mota vineyard
The Turó d’en Mota vineyard, which was planted in 1940 and trained traditionally, is located in the northwestern corner of Sant Sadurní d’Anoia in the county of the Alt Penedès, on the north side of a hill named Turó d’en Mota, from which it gets its name.
This vineyard is characterized by deep, well-drained soils and highly evolved soils owing to the presence of a calcic horizon with significant accumulations of carbonates in the form of calcareous nodules.
