A low-slung minivan rolls out of Barcelona and the land opens: vineyards step down toward the Mediterranean while the distant serrated profile of Montserrat keeps watch. Light hits young shoots and limestone terraces differently here — a sun-and-sea climate that shapes grapes as surely as vintners do.
