I’m revealing the secret ingredients to my favorite brand of Catalonia Wine- MF produced by the Martin Faixó family in the heart of Catalonia> unfortunately these secret ingredients are much harder to re-create than the secret to Catalonia Style Paella, but that is what perhaps makes the end result incredibly enjoyable.
1) Start with a 14th century building and lovingly restore it:

2) Situate your vineyard in the middle of scenic Parc Natural Cap de Creus between mountains and the sea:

3) Be passionate about life, food and wine, selecting only the best ingredients, home grown wherever possible, entrenched in tradition:

4) Provide a good home to the happiest dogs I’ve ever seen anywhere on the planet:

5) Share it – MF wines is a family affair, and the Martin Faixó family know that Catalonia wine tastes best when served in the company of family and friends, ideally over a leisurely lunch or dinner:
