History

At Can Bas we like talking about history. We think that both history and culture are defining traits of our terroir.

At Can Bas we’ve found prehistoric remains; we can boast sites from Iberian times, and a Roman villa beside the route of the Via Augusta, one of the Empire’s most important highways. There are plenty of vestiges of the middle ages here, as well as documents referring to the development of the wine-growing estate from the 15th century to the present day.

At Can Bas there is a winery and a country house that help to understand the history of the Penedès region – and of Catalonia as a whole – through wine and wine-growing. All it takes is a quick look.
