El Celler d'en Marc: Reviews
Positive experience:
Decent wines at reasonable prices. The visit did not excite me. Too many technicalities and they do not talk about how they work, values, philosophy, and processes. I see too many different wines for the hectares they have.

A big thank you Marc & Lut for hosting our group on May 19, 2023. We had an excellent time with you. The tour with Marc was very interesting. We discovered a true enthusiast. Your estate is magnificent. We had a very pleasant moment of camaraderie during the tasting of your wines, which were a wonderful surprise for us Bordeaux residents.

Fantastic experience: Very pleasant wine visit, recommended!
Fantastic experience: Our experience at El Celler d’en Marc was the best we’ve ever experienced! The owner started with an education in wine making like no other experience we’ve ever had! The passion in wine making along with the wine tasting exceeded our expectations!! The science of wine making and the end results were a game changer! It’s a must try experience for anyone with a desire for learning about the art of wine making and food pairing was the best experience ever!!! We love it!❤️
Fantastic experience:
We loved it, the visit with Lut throughout the Masía was very complete. She showed us all the facilities and its beautiful history from Belgium to l'Empordà. 100% recommended with exquisite wine tasting.

Fantastic experience:
I visited the winery with my partner and my mother-in-law (both Canadian, so the visit was in English without any issues). It was an incredible experience, the couple Lalut and Marc gave us the tour while sharing their passion. They have worked hard to make a delicious and ethical wine, they deserve all the recognition they have and more. And the place is beautiful! Thank you very much and congratulations.

We loved it!!! The farmhouse is spectacularly beautiful, and we both enjoyed the visit very much. A thousand thanks to Lut, an incredible experience.

Kind regards, Marc and Lut
Fantastic experience: Amazing wines and just as amazing hosts. They are a very nice Belgian/Dutch couple who speak multiple languages. It was not a problem to pick up the wine later (we didn't want to leave it in the car because of the heat as we would go to the beach after the tasting) and also got good advice on which beach to go. After a couple of days we went back to pick up more boxes of wine as we liked it so much. Do book a tasting and tour in advance.
Fantastic experience: Found by chance and just stopped by. Despite our unannounced visit, we felt very welcome. Marc and Lut make very nice wines in a non-typical Empordà style. Fun!
Fantastic experience: If you want to learn about the wine-making process, this is the place to go! We had a great visit to this beautiful winery. The owners Lut and Marc give a very nice and detailed tour of the place, and of course ending the tour with a nice tasting menu. We can definitely recommend people to visit El Cellar d'en Marc!
Fantastic experience:
The visit and wine tasting were very welcoming. The lut (the owner), a passionate person, immerses you in her wonderful world from the land to the bottle. The visit was beautiful and entertaining, culminating in a tasting of very good quality wines. Highly recommended, with the added benefit that the guide can be in different languages.

Fantastic experience: Very nice vineyard with very good wines. Both the tour and the tasting get five stars.
Fantastic experience:
Exceptional place, they take care of and pamper the product and the process from its origin. Quality wines with more than one very pleasant surprise. Don't miss trying their whites, and the crown jewel, Lalut creation Marcus, excellent !!!!

Fantastic experience:
Wonderful farmhouse to relax and enjoy Lut's passionate explanation of how they make their wines from the land to the bottle. The couple makes you feel their passion for making that wine that when you taste it, you understand everything. One of the best wines I have ever tried. Don't hesitate.

Fantastic experience: Today we visited this winery with a tour and tasting. We were impressed by the whole process of making wine and the passion and enthusiasm of the owners. Amazing how they managed to produce fantastic wine in a very short time. Keep up the good work. Thank you, Lut and Marc.
Fantastic experience: We visited recently and had a most enjoyable tour and wine tasting. Lut conducted the tour and her passion for what they do and produce was evident throughout. We all came away much more knowledgeable on how wine is produced and the standards set by the lovely couple who run this vineyard in a great setting just a short walk from Palamos. We all (4 of us) can recommend a visit to this extremely interesting and hospitable place. The wine is superb and all of us purchased a good number of the different wines available at reasonable figures.
Fantastic experience:
Thank you Mr. Marc and Mrs. Lut.. Wonderful welcome.. A fabulous visit through a magnificent vineyard. Mr. Marc shared his passion for his place, his estate, and for making his wine. Followed by a tasting of 4 wines that amazed us all with their flavor and exceptional taste. We had a very nice time. Thank you for your time. Sylvie and Luc

Fantastic experience: A fantastic winery to visit. You should let them know you're coming using the 'quote' feature of their website, they were very responsive. You can do a tasting, or tour and tasting. The tour takes at minimum 1 hour, you'll be taken through the process of vines to bottle. The tasting is another thirty minutes to one hour. Their wines are lovely and are all low sulfite. They all have an elegant singular and earthy aspect to them, very natural.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful domain, nice wines, and a friendly Flemish winemaker. We buy a stock of wine here several times a year. It’s best to call in advance if you want to stop by.
Fantastic experience:
Small winery located in a beautiful 1300 farmhouse, in a beautiful setting. The couple who run it are very nice and give you a very entertaining tour, ending with a tasting. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful vineyards and winery. Where the Belgian owners welcome you with hospitality. Top wines are available.
Fantastic experience: In the meantime, we drove from Palamós to Val Der Roberes, a tasty salad El Concorde from the Chef accompanied by the rosé from El Celler d'en Marc. A rosé to reckon with... we have already been a bit...
Fantastic experience:
Exquisite treatment from a Belgian couple who have transformed a piece of land in Empordà into a beautiful winery of Catalan but French-style wines. Highly recommended. Thank you very much!!
Translated from Catalan
Fantastic experience: January 2021, snow in the Netherlands, Monnickdam, enjoying the excellent laLut Tinto 2017, what a delight. Eyes closed, and thoughts go to that wonderful sunny day when we went to taste the wine at the chateau. What a top flavor.
Fantastic experience:
A beautiful place that started in the year 1320. The wine was perfect and the hosts were very friendly and hospitable. They invited us in even when they weren't open for a tour and tasting.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience: The tour around the old masia and winery was very informative and beautiful. Even the day before harvesting they made time to show us around and give us a tasting experience. The wines were beautiful. Would recommend! 5/5
Fantastic experience: We discovered this marvelous wine in a tapas bar in Palamos. It was love at first taste! The next day we went by bicycle to visit the cellar and we were very warmly welcomed there although unannounced. Very nice Belgian hosts with an amazing drive to make the best wine. And they do because recently they won awards!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful place and very good winery.
