La Voluta's focus is on indigenous varieties which grow well in the arid, Mediterranean climate. Their old vine Grenache and Syrah produce low yields but very concentrated wines like Loro that are punchy and herbaceous and really show off the Pyrenean terroir. All farming is uncertified organic, with the mountain winds offering a natural pesticide, and their viniculture uses sulphur only when very necessary.
