Celler Cal Pla is a family-owned winery, that dates back to 1814. Up to seven generations have been growing vines and making wines since then. Cal Pla is the name of the house and family, which has now been passed down to the wines. All of their wines are produced from grapes grown in their own vineyards and bottled in their cellar.
