L'Origan - Gastón Coty

Inspired by L'Origan, the legendary scent created by François Coty in 1906, Mr. Manuel Martínez founded Bodega L'Origan-Gastón Coty in 1998 with the aid of his scion Carles. Built in the same year in which the perfume was introduced, the facilities of Bodega L'Origan are situated in a three-storey undergound cave in the very heart of Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, the capital of the DO Cava.

The Cavas of bodega L’Origan-Gastón Coty are produced basically from the traditional Penedès varieties Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada, which are complemented by variable amounts of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The grapes are sourced from 20 to 50 year old vines located on the outskirts of Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, Penedès.

Produced following the traditional method, the wines of bodega L’Origan-Gastón Coty are vinified in stainless steel tanks, after which some of the base wines are aged in oak barrels. Once bottled, the Spanish sparkling wines from L’Origan complete secondary fermentation and are aged in the underground cellar for a substantial period of time. The results of this long and painstaking process are L’O de L’Origan Brut Nature and L’O de L’Origan Rosado, two luscious, impressively refined Cavas from Penedès.
