Torres Winery & Codorniu Cava
Tour
The day starts with a guided tour at the Torres vineyard. For over 130
years Miguel Torres has been recognised as one of the world leaders in the
production and export of quality brandies and wines. Set in the heart of the Penedes
hills surrounded by vineyards the expert Torres guide will take you on a tour
of the underground ageing cellars containing thousands of oak barrels, travel
by train around the vineyard and visit the modern wine making facilities. As
you walk among barrels and smell the wine your guide will explain some of the
secrets of making fine wines here at Torres. Before you leave you can take part
in a wine tasting session or buy a few bottles of wine from their shop.
A short drive will take you to the Vilafranca del Penedes, there will be
some free time to browse the wine shops, visit the wine museum and stop for
some lunch.
In the afternoon you will visit the Codorníu Cava vineyards where you join
one of their guided tours. The Codorníu guide will take you through the huge
underground cellars, the beautiful gardens and the stunning buildings designed
by the Art Nouveau architect Puig and Cadafalch. You will learn about the
history and production of their famous sparkling white wines. It was here in
1872 that the sparkling wine known as Cava was first born.
