ABOUT MASIA SERRA
The history of Masia Serra begins with a small vineyard planted in 1961 with the Grenache grape. Other french varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, … occupy part of the 12 hectares that today make up the estate. Jaume Serra, owner and oenologist of the bodega, grew up in a traditional winemaking family. After completion of his studies at the university Rovira i Virgili of Tarragona and completion of his arduous apprenticeship at Chateaux Petrus he decided to create his own wines at the bodega he founded in Cantallops.
Jaume, grandson of a wine dealer and son of the also well known oenologist Simon Serra, has learned to value the noble liquid, which he says generates warm feelings in its surroundings. An austere home of the typical catalan masia style welcomes visitors at the western edge of the square estate, which is bordered on the north by the Alberas, mountains that stretch to the sea in the Gulf of Roses. The southern border remains open to the Empordan plain that provides a horizon to our view. A production room, another for bottling, and a storage room excavated in the heart of a mound of solid granite stone provides shelter for a few wines that have left their fingerprints in the world of wine, and that can be found in those restaurants that take extra care in offering their clients a reputed list of wines.
It must be noted that a simple but beautiful room topped with a few poems that hang its walls and tell of the goodness of wine, the fruit of hope and love for the land, that is where the wines tasted and where decided by the assemblies that are to survive over time.
