A wine born from mountains and living rock
Cara Nord Garrut is an authentic expression of the extreme terroir of D.O. Conca de Barberà. Grown in proprietary vineyards at 800 m altitude, surrounded by the Prades Mountains and the forests of Bosc de Poblet, this wine emerges from wild nature and deep respect for the land.
A project of passion and origin
Founded in 2012 by Tomàs Cusiné, Xavier Cepero and Eric Solomon, Cara Nord is built on a clear vision: character comes from origin. Garrut (a native Monastrell) is grown on poor, slate and clay-limestone soils under a continental-Mediterranean climate that favors slow ripening and vibrant acidity.
Respectful winemaking & dual aging
Fermentation with skins takes place at controlled temperatures using traditional methods. The wine then rests for 6 months — half in used French oak barrels and half in clay amphorae, resulting in a pure, mineral texture.
Wild yet elegant sensory profile
Deep and intense color. On the nose: ripe black fruits, wild herbs, damp earth, and subtle spices. On the palate, it’s round and fresh, with polished tannins and a strong mineral backbone. The finish is dry, long, and full of mountain character.
For those who love the authentic
Ideal with game dishes, grilled meats, stewed legumes, or aged cheeses. This is a wine that speaks of altitude, origin, and natural balance.

About the Winery

Cara Nord was born in 2012 in the D.O. Conca de Barberà, the result of the union of three great wine figures: Tomàs Cusiné, Xavier Cepero, and importer Eric Solomon. The winery is located in Vimbodí i Poblet, on the northern side of the Prades Mountains, at an altitude of 800 meters. This mountainous environment, with slate, limestone-clay soils, and a continental Mediterranean climate, gives its wines an unparalleled uniqueness. Cara Nord focuses on sustainability, respect for the environment, and the production of high-altitude wines with well-adapted varieties, such as Garrut (Monastrell), offering wines with identity, freshness, and elegance.

Safe shipping and tracking at all times.
