Regulating Council

The Regulating Council marks the permitted yields of vineyards and wineries, and they also set the pressing limits

To supervise regulations, a legal body and a series of controls have been developed, which are carried out by the Regulatory Council itself.

Internal Legislation

La Denominació d’Origen ampara vins blancs amb graduacions de 10 a 13 graus, vins rosats entre 11 i 13 graus i vins negres entre 11 i 14 graus. Altres tipus no seran considerats Penedès. El Consell Regulador marca el rendiment de les vinyes i bodegues, i també tenen fixats els límits de premsat. Per a supervisar-lo s’ha desenvolupat un cos legal i una sèrie de controls, que s’efectuen des del propi Consell Regulador.

Un dels majors reptes que s’ha imposat el Consell és que la gran majoria de vins arribin envasats al consumidor, doncs vol evitar que els vins de Denominació d’Origen s’embotellin fora de la zona.

Quant a la criança i envelliment per als vins blancs, el reglament estableix un mínim de sis mesos abans de comercialitzar-los, amb tot això s’obté que els vins s’adeqüin i arribin al consumidor amb el màxim esplendor. Per als vins negres s’exigeix un mínim de 15 mesos de criança, éssent un obligatori en fusta i dos en ampolla. Per als grans reserves el períodes és pràcticament el doble.

En definitiva, els vins de Denominació d’Origen acostumen a sortir al mercat entre els divuit mesos i els dos anys, encara que això no suposa que hi hagi productors que allarguin més tot el procés, depenent de les qualitats i el tipus de vi que vulguin oferir.

Quality Guarantee

The DO Penedès seal on a bottle is the guarantee of quality control and the authenticity of a Penedès wine. Raise a glass, enjoy them and share them. Cheers!
Control
The Regulating Council of the DO Penedès controls the entire winemaking process, from the vineyard to the glass, in other words, its traceability. Using a soil map, the characteristics of every plot planted to vine are known and the Regulating Council keeps a register of growers with the details of every producer. During the harvest production, vineyard yields and the quantity of grapes assigned for producing classified wines is all controlled.
Analysis
To this end, all samples are subject to sensory analysis by the tasting committee. Only those samples that exceed the required limits are classified and receive the seal of guarantee that every bottle of DO Penedès wine carries.
