Merchant's description
' The La Freixeneda is a 13-century farming estate, which has belonged to the Ferrer family for 18 generations. It is the home Spanish winemaking royalty and where the famed Freixenet sparkling wine started. The iconic estate was recently upgraded and no expense was spared in making it a state-of-the-art bodega that incorporates traditional methods of production from the Catalan region. All this goes into every bottle produced at the world-class estate. '
