Guided tour

Nestled in the heart of Baix Empordà and minutes from the sea, lies an exceptional luxury wine estate. Surrounded by lush fields and the serenity of its vines, this exquisite residence was meticulously crafted in 2007, showcasing an unparalleled fusion of elegance and tranquility. Designed by the renowned architect Josep Ferres Marcó, the property is a testament to meticulous attention to detail and a celebration of the region's natural beauty. As you pass through the wrought-iron gate at the entrance, a path lined with fragrant oleanders guides you towards the estate's main door. An expansive parking area encircles a peaceful pond, and from here, you can access the spacious garage suitable for multiple vehicles. A grand porch beckons you to enter the splendid mansion through an imposing solid wood door, flanked by a pivoting glass front door. The heart of this magnificent property boasts a welcoming living room graced by a stately fireplace, an expansive dining area, a serene reading nook, and an inviting terrace covered by an ancient vine. The living room is bathed in natural light, thanks to large windows offering views of both a charming courtyard with a tranquil fountain and endless vistas of the surrounding fields. This provides a sense of brightness and serenity, regardless of the season. On each side of this central area, two glass-walled rooms, which can be fully opened to the outdoors, offer versatility. One is a summer lounge, and the other houses a 75-meter pool that cleverly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, making it a delightful all-year-round feature. To the sides of the central space, two double bedrooms, each with access to the garden and the pool, share a well-appointed full bathroom, totaling four double bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. The kitchen, strategically positioned, grants seamless access to the dining area and the service quarters. It features a spacious living area, a well-equipped kitchen, and an adjoining double bedroom. Furthermore, there's direct access to the utility and laundry rooms. Towards the back of the residence, you'll find a generous TV room, a large office with a pool table, and an inviting area to entertain friends and family. These expansive rooms surround a sunlit courtyard adorned with orange and lemon trees. The upper floor is accessible via two distinct entrances. An elegant staircase from the main entrance leads to the master bedroom, a veritable dream suite. It features a cozy fireplace, expansive countryside views, a generous dressing room, separate his and hers bathrooms, a gym area, and terraces with an outdoor shower. The double-height design of this room creates a versatile wood-clad space that opens to the bedroom. Only the finest materials were used in crafting this exceptional property, showcasing exquisite and refined taste throughout. One of the highlights of this estate is the remarkable wine cellar, designed by the award-winning architect Jorge Vidal in 2016. Accessible through a discreet tunnel-like passage from the garden, the cellar is ingeniously nestled underground with a south-facing façade, offering ample light and picturesque views of the vineyards. Encompassing around 15,000 square meters of vineyards, both white and red varieties, the winery is designed for production and personal consumption, yielding approximately 8,000 bottles annually. The winery comprises four interconnected buildings, encompassing facilities for vineyard management, laboratories, bottling areas, and cold storage. The second building is dedicated to the maceration of must, while the third is designed for barrel and bottle storage. The fourth building is reserved for tastings, providing space for up to 40 people, complete with two cozy fireplaces, wine storage, and convenient restroom facilities. Notable features of this estate include underfloor heating, air conditioning, a well, a state-of-the-art alarm system with security cameras, automatic irrigation systems, and solar panels that contribute to energy sustainability. The property harmoniously combines the luxury of a tranquil residence with the craftsmanship of a premium winery, making it a truly exceptional gem in the heart of Baix Emporda.
