Lucy Chilvers organically farms 4.5 hectares in the El Penedès, Catalunya - making dazzling expressions of stubborn old vines grown at up to 400m elevation on clay-limestone. Lucy's journey in wine has taken her from restaurants in London and Brighton to the course at Plumpton, to working alongside Sasa & Ivana Radikon in Friuli before eventually finding a home in Catalunya. Through her four parcels, she works organically with a little sulphur and a handful of biodynamic treatments. In the cellar, she makes no additions.
