About the Winery

Situated in Catalonia, Spain, Gallina de Piel is a small but mighty winery run by David Seijas, the former Wine Director for world-renowned restaurant El Bulli. This unique winery focuses on creating high-quality, artisan wines, revealing the true essence of Catalan vineyards.

One of the things that makes Gallina de Piel stand out is its winemaking philosophy. Seijas aspires to create wines that are 'gastronomic', meaning they work well with food pairings and enhance dining experiences. Alongside this, Gallina de Piel aims to tell a story with each bottle, and subsequently, each bottle is a reflection of the land where the grapes are grown. This takes us on a journey, from the delicate hints of minerality present in Granític, to the fresh citrus and ripe peach flavours of Imaginador.

At its heart, Gallina de Piel is a true innovator, known for its dynamic winemaking methods and quality. The winery demonstrates a dedication to sustainability, taking into account the environment in every process - from planting to bottling. To give an instance, the winery prefers organic farming methods over conventional ones, showcasing its commitment to ecologically friendly wine production.

The vineyard’s approach to creating unique blends has seen them using both well-known and lesser-known varietals. Expect to be delighted by blends of international fame like Grenache and Carignan, as well as local favourites like Macabeo and Xarel-lo.

In conclusion, Gallina de Piel is a gem among Catalan wineries. It connects the dots between wine, food and culture, allowing us to experience the true spirit of Catalonia with every sip. Every bottle poured is a narrative of the land, the flora and the passion that goes into each glass! Despite the modern and inventive approach to winemaking, Gallina de Piel still manages to honour the Authentic traditions of Spanish viticulture.
