Conca de Barberà is a small DO in Catalonia's interior, surrounded by Costers del Segre, Penedès, and Priorat. At 450–800m altitude with limestone soils and a strong diurnal temperature range, the region produces wines of remarkable freshness and precision. Historically known as the source of Chardonnay for Codorníu Cava, independent producers are now making world-class still wines. Trepat — the area's unique indigenous rosé grape — is a signature.
