In the morning:

Clos Pons (L’ Albagés, Lleida)

In L’Albagés, in the heart of Les Garrigues, the Pons family has managed to make consumers, sommeliers and chefs all over the world fall in love with their oils, vinegars and wines. It is a family business that has been evolving since the 1930s, during the post-war period, when they began cultivating arbequina olive trees and planting vines.

Their stated mission is to preserve the legacy of an ancestral land, whose soil lies on bedrock loaded with minerals, in a clean and pure environment and an extreme climate. The generations pass, but the earth always remains and the family continues to till the soil so that many more generations can enjoy it in the future.

The richness of their crops produces wines and oils with exclusive aromas and tastes. Year after year, they work on innovating and improving the production processes. This dedication allows them to offer an excellent range of products that become real gastronomic pleasures when they reach the table. Their most popular wines are Jan white and red, white Sisquella , the organic red Alges, Pla del tet, Roc nu, and Clos Pons.
