Freshinet……

For those of you who, like me, have never known how to pronounce FREIXENET, this is how they say it at the Cellars - “Freshinet”!
After 5 days of chilling and me recuperating from a horrid chest infection by a beautiful beach near L’Estartit, we moved on to an aire at the Olympic Stadium in Terrassa. Well that was our plan but when we got there it just didn’t feel right - so the beauty of having a home on wheels is that you just move on! So we did and found ourselves on the last spot on the aire by Sant Sadurni d’anoia.
We came here as there is a Cava festival
on this weekend called Cavatast.
After a smashing sleep we got up and cycled into the town for a tour/tasting at the chocolate factory of Simon Coll. Very interesting and of course there was a shop at the end! 😋
Then after all that chocolate tasting we were a little dry……did someone say that this is the Spanish home of Cava???
Off we went to the Freixenet Cellars for a very informative video and a most enjoyable 4 premium Cavas and paired nibbles - followed, of course, by the obligatory visit to their shop…….
Back to Leo for a Suzan doctored pizza which Steve said was next level! Ha ha
Having now done a Cava tasting we’re going to move on South tomorrow.Read more
