We
pick you up from your hotel and take you
to the internationally renowned Vineyard
Torres in the Penedes region some 40 minutes
to the south of Barcelona, Spain.
During the wine tour, the
guide will give a brief introduction to
the wine and cava growing region that you
are driving through in order to familiarise
the clients with the area.
After the initial welcome and check in you
are taken on a one and a half hour interactive
tour of the vineyard during which the whole
process, from the harvesting of the grapes,
through fermentation to the actual bottling
and tasting itself, is explained.
Once the tour has finished everyone has
the opportunity to sample some of the vineyard's
best wines which are accompanied by some
light snacks and explanations about the
labels you are drinking. There are 4 wines
to try, a white, rose and 2 reds
Torres is also one of Spain's most well
known brandy producers and groups are also
given the opportunity to sample their 20
year old prize winning cognac.
Clients will also be given time to visit
Torres's extensive shop where they can seek
out some of their favourite labels.
For groups who choose to do this tour in
the morning, lunch can be arranged afterwards
in a traditional rustic restaurant typical
of the region, where groups get the chance
to eat una parillada de carne, a selection
of meats cooked on wooden barbeques.
