A revolution is taking place in Penedès and AT Roca is at the vanguard. After decades under the control of the huge and dominating Cava DO, a handful of producers have defected. It started with a single winery, but slowly more and more quality sparkling wine producers are disassociating themselves from the Cava DO that has nothing to do with a sense of place. Catalans have never been afraid of separating from the masses, and in the heart of Catalunya, AT Roca is no different. 

With a focus on vineyards and wines with a sense of place, AT Roca uses only indigenous yeasts and harvests 100% of their grapes by hand (most grapes in Cava are harvested by machine). Sulfur is only used once to block malolactic as an effort to retain the natural acidity of the grapes. All of the winery's sparkling wines are zero dosage.
