ABOUT THIS WINE
Celler de les Aus is the natural wine project of the Pujol-Busquets family, creators of the Alta Alella estate. Located just north of Barcelona in the DO Alella, the winery is dedicated to producing natural wines and ancestral sparkling wines (Pét-Nats) without added sulfites. The estate's vineyards are situated on 'sauló' soils—a decomposed granite that provides excellent drainage and distinctive mineral characteristics. Named after local birds, 'Puput' (the Hoopoe) represents the winery's commitment to biodiversity and ecological harmony in the vineyard.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Produced using the ancestral method (Pétillant Naturel). The grapes are harvested manually and undergo a gentle pressing. Fermentation begins spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks under temperature control. Before fermentation is complete, the wine is bottled without any added sulfites, fining, or filtration. The fermentation finishes inside the bottle, trapping the natural carbon dioxide to create a delicate, integrated sparkle. The bottles are sold with their natural sediment (lees) remaining.
