Their proposal to visit 4x4 vineyards
Try and buy a good wine after visiting Siurana or the Parc Natural de la Serra del montsant, land of traditions and hermitages.
Know and taste not only the wines that are made, but also the most characteristic gastronomic products of Cornudella: white blood sausage, black sausage, sequin, cheese, arbequina, etc.
Go up to the hermitage of Sant Joan del Codolar and then walk down the old Camí dels Cartoixans until you reach Cornudella, enjoying a beautiful route between vineyards and crops (Entre Còdols(Stones)).
The details of ceramics on the facade.
The smell of wine and history on the lateral corridors of the basement.
These are the experiences you can experience in this winery. Choose the one that you like best or fit. Let's say: the choice will not be easy (you will like them all!)

Cèsar Martinell i Brunet
Description
Wine cellar by Cèsar Martinell commissioned by the Agricultural Union of Cornudella. It is a completely rational and innovative winery, with spectacular architectural beauty and at the same time an enormous functionality.
The building consists of a central nave crowned with a covered roof with two beams built with wooden beams and covered with the traditional Arabic tile. The ship can be divided into two large plants where the two levels of tubs are located.
The uniqueness of the building is found in the upper room queues, which have a pseudo-rectangle shape instead of circular, as usual.
On the lower floor the tubs are cylindrical and are located in the center of the nave. It is accessed by lateral corridors covered with parabolic or gaudinian arches that start from the ground. These arches and the Catalan vault that separates them are those that support the weight of the upper tubes.
The construction of the winery lasted three years, during which many farmers, when they finished work on their estates, contributed to the construction of the winery.
The Cooperative Winery of Cornudella de Montsant has been dedicated since its beginnings and to the present day to the elaboration and sale of the two main products of the area: wine and oil. After the changes and stages that it has lived throughout its history, the winery is proud of having maintained the legacy inherited from past generations and having been able to adapt to the new times.
