Barcelona, Spain - After meeting your private guide you'll enjoy a panoramic drive along Barcelona's marine front before departing the city for the Pacs del Penedès. The Penedès is Catalonia's premier wine producing region located along the coastline south of Barcelona. The hot dry Mediterranean climate makes this an ideal grape growing region.

Your half day trip includes a visit to the Torres wine cellar where you will learn about the thousand year old tradition of making wine in this area. Starting your tour in the visitor center you'll enjoy a short film which illuminates the history of the winery from planting through harvest and fermentation. 

In the "Tunnel of the Seasons" you will experience the climatic contrasts of the vine’s annual cycle as well as hear and smell the environment that surrounds it. You'll walk between the barrels of wine while you learn the secrets of smelling the wine as it matures.

Of course the highlight of your visit comes after your tour when you enjoy the tasting of the Torres wines. Red is the specialty here, but you will also love their light whites and "cava" (sparkling wine).
