Raul Bobet, once the chief winemaker at Torres, is a legendary figure in Spanish wine. Driven by climate concerns, he planted vineyards at 1,000 meters in the Pyrenees, producing Riesling, Semillon, and Pinot Noir that showcase a refined side of Spain.

Castell dEncus lies in Talarn, Catalonia, beside 12thcentury stone cellars carved by monks. Bobet combines these ancient methods with modern techniques, powering the winery sustainably with geothermal energy. His philosophy is to preserve freshness, elegance, and complexity.

Raul is also deeply interested in philosophy and meditation, and he names his wines either in Sanskrit or after the places where the grapes grow. Ekam meansdivine unityin Sanskrit.

His guiding principle is simple:
Fresh, fine, elegant, complex wines of exceptional quality crafted with minimum intervention, where the vineyard and grapes take the leading role.

His philosophy may seem simple, but it demands meticulous care in vineyard and cellar, backed by a skilled team able to craft wines that inspire even under unpredictable weather. Today, Castell dEncus stands among Spains most exciting wineries on the global stage.
