In Languedoc, France, at the end of the 19th century, Josep Álvarez discovers the art of winemaking from a French winegrower, a passion that will dominate his life. Despite his youth, Josep has experienced love, intrigue, and hard work, experiences that, along with his vocation, will mark his destiny. After being involved in a political plot, he flees to France, where he works for a winegrower. Despite the fear of being captured, he decides to return home. Fighting against the elements, Josep embarks on the arduous and fascinating adventure of making a good wine. Around him, the inhabitants of Santa Eulàlia: the young widow Marimar and her son Francesc, Nivaldo, the shopkeeper of Cuban origin, and Donat, Josep's working brother, characters that enrich this novel. 'El celler' contains the essence of Noah Gordon's previous works: personal stories of strength, vital characters, and faithful portraits of an era.
