FAMILIA TORRES Desde 1870 AND THE PRIORAT, A HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIP • Priorat’s wine history dates back to the 12th century and the first Carthusian community, which had arrived from France and decided to stay put. They set about planting vineyards on the region’s steep and stony terrain and then cultivated the vine for centuries thereafter. The Torres family’s relationship with this area is much more recent as it goes back to the turn of the 20th century, when the wines from this region first started to be commercialised.

WINE TOURISM IN THE FIRST PERSON ALSACE (1) • When you see photos of Alsace, they usually depict lovely idyllic landscapes and there is an air of tranquillity about the place that you just could not imagine in a cosmopolitan city such as the one I currently live in. Well, Alsace really is like that. Over the seven days that I had the pleasure of spending in this wine-producing region, I found myself immersed in that tranquillity and the relaxed pace of life of the lovely villages and towns that I visited with my family.

The exaltation of the earth • The Priorat D.O.Q. recently unveiled its new wine classifications, backed up by complete traceability and ensuring that the origin of the wines is respected. In order to determine quality and prices, the D.O.Q. has carried out a precise, almost microscopic, analysis of its wine growing area. The new classifications are similar to those commonly used in Burgundy.
