David Delgado Vendrell (Estudio Aquitectura) aportará al Programa del Wine Pleasures Congreso Internacional de Enoturismo una ponencia muy interesante para cualquier bodega de cualquier país a la hora de plantearse explotar más y mejor el gancho turístico de sus instalaciones. La arquitectura es un factor a tener en cuanta a la hora de preparar y/o actualizar su plan de marketing enoturístico.
David presentará su ponencia:
Arquitectura Enoturística Destinada a Bodegas Existentes o de Nueva Creación
Miércoles 3 de febrero a las 11.00
Bodega Torrens Moliner
Los asistentes al Congreso y dentro del programa After Congreso de Networking por las tardes tendrán la oportunidad de visitar una de las pocas bodegas de la DO Penedès y Cava (de más de 400 bodegas!) que claramente está optando de una forma activa por el enoturismo: Torrens Moliner. La Bodega comenzó en el Capital de Cava, Sant Sadurní y ahora está ubicada en la aldea de La Fortesa y como no el arquitecto de la nueva bodega ha sido David Delgado.
En la su ponencia David va a tratar lo siguiente:
” Cómo aplicar criterios arquitectónicos eficaces en edificaciones para la elaboración de vino que ya estén en uso o de nueva creación y que quieran adaptarse al mercado enoturístico emergente: valoración del potencial de espacios y/o creación de nuevos en relación a su uso enoturístico; análisis del entorno (rústico o urbano) y su aprovechamiento, etc…
1. CONTEX Breve repaso a la evolución de la arquitectura enológica para contextualizar el análisis. 2. TIPOLOGIAS: Breve análisis de tipologías de bodegas y de sus espacios. Las fases de elaboración del vino y la adaptación de los espacios que les dan cobertura para un aprovechamiento óptimo de los contenidos enfocados al enoturismo, cómo pueden ser recorridos, cursos, experiencias en 1ª persona, etc… Espacios industriales vs. espacios nobles en edificaciones existentes y de nueva creación.3. ANÁLISIS DE ESPACIOS en bodegas EXISTENTES: se tratará el cómo és posible adatpar con pocos recursos muchos de los espacios que las bodegas ya disponen y que no tienen adaptados al uso enoturístico. 4. BODEGAS de NUEVA CREACIÓN. Análisis estratégico del diseño, ya sea en fases o abordado en todo su conjunto, de las áreas destinadas a desarrollar el potencial enoturístico de la nueva edificación. Lenguajes arquitectónicos adequados a las características del entorno en el que se ubican. Encaje paisajístico de las nuevas construcciones, donde se resalte la vinculación de la bodega con el entorno que lo rodea a fin de conferir un imagen coherente para el visitante. 5. ENTORNOS. Urbano vs rústico. Cómo el entorno puede configurar nuevos usos o adaptar los existentes en bodegas.Nuevos espacios para la industria del vino y su compatibilidad con el mercado enoturístico”.
Esta semana he tenido el placer de conocer el productor de S’Alqueria, Ivo, compartiendo mesa en la promoción de nuestros productos, buscando nuevos horizontes internacionales.
Un Placer IVO !!!
I will also meet Xavier Torrens-Moliner a colleague producer in Penedés: Torrens Moliner . I will share meetings with him and we both hope to have good contacts .
Torrens Moliner aposta per la sostenibilitat del mèdi ambient, utilitzant aigua de la propia finca (pou natural) per a el procès d’el.laboració dels seus Vins i Caves, per a el manteniment del entorn de la Bodega, i finalment per el retorn de les aigues utilitzades directament a les nostres Vinyes (conveni de vinasses), en funció de les necessitats de la pròpia TERRA.
Torrens Moliner with their CAVA ’s products are going to be participating on the next WORKSHOP WINE PLEASURES (10 th to 12ve of February 2010) at the Barcelo Montserrat Hotel.
At the workshop, Hosted Buyers hold pre -scheduled business meetings and tastings with Iberian wineries of potential interest as well is TORRENS MOLINER.
These meetings have the dual objectives of discovering and selecting new limited production boutique wines and of cultivating new professional relationships.
Both Hosted Buyers and cellers are carefully selected by Wine Pleasures in order to ensure that both parties will find what they are looking for.

All this in a cost-effective, one stop opportunity to do so by meeting face to face in Spain with a wide range of quality wine makers concentrated in one convenient and enchanting venue for just two and a half days.
So if you are a Wine professional that is looking for a SPANISH WINNERY that elaborates a high quality Wine and Cava limited production, do not hesitate to contact us , or just come over to the Workshop, where you are going to be able to make a fine tasting of our products.

When I think of Spain I think of great Spanish culture, beautiful woman, and of course, great wine.
Hit me again Mr Winery tour guide
In the states, it’s tough to find the winery that gives you a warm feeling of family tradition dedicated to wine and their consumers. It is more, trying wine after wine without great explanation or what went into preparing that certain wine. As we say a lot after a night of festivities, “It’s like bar-hopping from one to the next.” However, my visit to Torrens Moliner, TM, proved to me that there is such thing as learning while drinking alcohol, wine in this case.
Torrens Moliner (DO Cava)
Being a visitor in Spain, I wanted to take advantage of something that is not easily accessible in the states and that is to try the wine that is made from this country. I have been able to do so by buying wine from local markets and grocery stores but just recently I had the opportunity to try wine from a very private and local winery in Catalunya. To be exact, they are located very close to Sant Sadurní D’Anoia in La Fortesa, where their new winery construction is almost complete.

TM is a family owned winery that was started in 1986 and located in the heart of Sant Sadurni d’Anoia and has since stayed small and private. To put its size in perspective to other wineries, its only international consumers it has partnered with is Mexico, Switzerland, and of course Spain. That was astonishing to me since wineries tend to find consumers pretty quickly. Yet, when finding out what TM’s objective, this made all the perfect sense. As their mission statement states,”… We have opted to self-finance the projects we have undertaken, to keep the business as a dynamic, independent, constantly-evolving family company.” Only making 60,000 bottles of wine a year, additionally, making 9 different wines and cavas, they are committed to their family and goals.
Reserve & Gran Reserve
Having tried 2 of their cavas, Cava Reserve and Cava Gran Reserve, this company is on the path to do greater things. Not only making more wine throughout the year, but wine and cava’s that are delicious and to everyone’s liking. They have 3 different aged wines and each are easily identifiable by their unique colored cork stamps; white stamps mean 9 to 15 months of ageing, green meaning 15 to 30 months of ageing, and black meaning more than 30 months of ageing.
Here’s that large window
With their new winery, in La Fortesa, it is sure to help TM expand their consumer base and begin to gain more recognition around not only in Spain but around the world. Their objective of being a family tradition style winery, their new location has just that. A beautiful establishment, they are easy to get in touch with, always making themselves available for any last minute winery visits, but most of all, their dedication to being connected with its consumers and family.
Let me have your comments
Once they get their winery settled and rolling (taking advantage of the social media), expect big things with this winery. It is worth your time and wine tasting pleasures.

Durant la Setmana del Cava, el proper 12 d’Octubre, Torrens Moliner organitza un dia de portes obertes a la nova bodega. Per poder visitar la cava i vinyes , tot gaudint de l’entorn, juntament amb bona companía i una copa de cava Torrens Moliner.
Sant Sadurni d’Anoia, està de festa !!! Com cada any, el foc, la llum, i el groc de la Fil.loxera surten pels carrers del poble.
Des del 1981, Sant Sadurní d’Anoia recorda amb la Festa de la Fil.loxera un episodi cabdal de la seva història, la plaga de Fil.loxera que a partir del 1887 va arrasar les Vinyes del municipi.
Un grup de persones del poble, anomenats Set Savis, van ajudar a difondre el remei per acabar amb la Fil.loxera, replantant les vinyes del municipi amb varietats provinents d’Amèrica, que eren immunes a l’atac.
Si teniu l’ocasió de poder visitar la Capital del Cava durant aquests dies, els Sadurninencs us farem partíceps de la història i tradició del poble.
