Qualified Estate Wines (Vins de Finca Qualificada, QEW) are the epitome of the close tie between winemaking and the local area. For this reason, as part of the ambitious Horitzó2025 transformation process, INCAVI is allocating greater resources towards the QEW Project in order to improve the standing of Catalan wines in key markets around the world based on these unique wines.
