Caves Naveran is among the most respected family wineries in the Penedès. The history of the estate dates back to 1901, while the modern winery was founded in 1984 by Michel Gillieron Parellada.

The estate boasts over 100 hectares of its own vineyards around Torrelavit and operates entirely organically. All grapes are hand-harvested and exclusively from their own plots. This complete control over production allows Naveran to produce cavas of exceptional quality and consistency.
