Welcome to Costers del Segre

Our D.O.

Getting to know the culture of our wine is the best way to discover the lands of Lleida. A wine that is characterized by its quality and production and by charming wineries located in beautiful natural settings...

The Denomination of Origin Costers del Segre is a mosaic made up of seven territories distributed along the entire basin of the Segre River and the Lleida Pyrenees with the aim of grouping together and giving the viticulture of the province of Lleida its own entity.

Our DO has its own and well-defined characteristics that differentiate it from the others, such as our privileged situation of soils with calcareous composition and a continental climate with Mediterranean influences, which presents strong seasonal and daily thermal oscillations, facts that they make it ideal for growing vines.

Our wines

Throughout our DO, the traditional Macabeu and Parellada white wine varieties are predominant. This results in the white wines of the region of Costers del Segre having a classic profile, that is to say, light, fruity and acidulant. The successful acclimatization of Chardonnay in the region has opened the door to wines with more modern characteristics, both young wines or fermented in oak barrels, with a better structure and their varietal character more present.

The main red wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and Pinot Noir, but traditional varieties are also cultivated, mainly Tempranillo, Grenache and Trepat. Within the logical nuances that the land of each area gives its grapes, the red wines of the Costers del Segre DO are characterized by a powerful aroma and balanced flavour while delivering a good tannic expression, and on the palate they are tasty, ample and structured.
