alDear Club Torres Friends,

Once again, I have the great pleasure of introducing our latest magazine, the 2011 edition, featuring a fully updated catalogue of our wines and brandies.

2010 was a very important year for us. Despite difficult times, we kept our sights on enhancing the quality and variety of our wines and improving the service our customers deserve. At the same time, we managed to increase our sales by 11%, largely thanks to our export business. This success would have been impossible without the enormous effort by everyone working for the company. Everyone here in Vilafranca, trying to reduce costs and improve quality. And our colleagues elsewhere, doing everything they can to meet our sales objectives... Everyone supports the company and is continuously seeking innovation and excellence.

New wines like Ibéricos from Rioja, Celeste from Ribera del Duero, Salmos and Perpetual from Priorat have achieved a solid position, adding prestige to our wine selection and contributing to increased sales.

Natureo has also found its niche, surprising plenty of people who did not think that a market for a high quality, alcohol-free wine existed. Frankly, it is a delicious drink. It has become my favourite aperitif at Mas Rabell. I drink it every day and save the wine for lunch.

Our plans to reduce the effects of climate change continued throughout 2010. Our investments since 2007 total close to 7 million euros, focused on installing renewable forms of energy, primarily solar panels, as well as the purchase of about 50 hybrid cars for our representatives and some of our in-house staff, myself in-cluded. Several R&D activities follow in the same vein. Most importantly, the use of new techniques to reduce pollution (growing algae to eliminate carbon dioxide, biomass treatment after the harvest, obtaining charcoal from material left over after pruning and wood from old vines, etc.).

Currently, our company is considered the most internationally prestigious and widely represented Spanish family-run winery. Our wines are sold in as many as 150 countries worldwide on a regular basis and are served in the world's best hotels and restaurants. Thus, it comes as no surprise that in its March edition, the magazine Decanter (the world's leading wine magazine) declared Torres the most famous name in Spanish wines. And last July, the Wall Street Journal wrote, "No winery is more innovative or iconic in terms of Spain's recent history than Torres".

Finally, I would also like to congratulate my children on the excellent job they're doing. Mireia at Jean Leon and in the Priorat, and Miguel in Chile. As well as my sister, Marimar, who is producing outstanding organic wines in California.

Enjoy the magazine... Here's to your health! Cheers!

Ribera del Duero Generally speaking, the 2010 harvest stands out for incredibly healthy grapes and excellent alcoholic and phenolic maturity, largely due to very low yields per hectare in selected plots; an average of 2,500 kg/ha. The wines exhibit heightened aromatic intensity and colour. They are particularly noteworthy for their pleasant roundness and sweet tannins.

Rioja An ideal season. The harvest promises great wines, splendid in structure and colour, which will only improve during barrel ageing. A good vegeta-tive cycle marked by abundant rainfall in the winter and slow, regular ripening as well as ideal climate conditions all make the 2010 vintage one of the best in recent years.

Priorat The 2010 season can be classified as excel-lent thanks to climate conditions that ensured a seamless ripening period and very healthy grapes. Most summer days experienced significant tem-perature fluctuations between day and night, thus favouring an optimal ripening process. This factor was particularly interesting in the warmer areas (around El Lloar) and in relation to the Garnacha variety, because it prevented the undesirable, ac-celerated accumulation of sugar. In the Porrera area, temperatures were more moderate throughout the ripening period, resulting in a delayed harvest, which

took place approximately 2-3 weeks after El Lloar. The Cariñena and Garnacha wines display a notably intense colour, a nose marked by great typicity and a significantly concentrated midpalate.

Penedès / Conca de Barberà / Catalunya Climate conditions during the vegetative cycle of the grapes were largely cool in the spring and warm in summer, without prolonged periods of excessive heat. Rainfall was greater than in the previous year and peak temperatures in August were lower than in past summers, except for the week immediately prior to the harvest. Overall, it was a cooler year with milder maximum temperatures and a greater supply of water than is customary in these vineyards. The harvest began on August 27th and concluded on October 26th. It could be considered a later harvest, with rainfall in September and a slow, calm ripening period. In short, the 2010 vintage is characterised by a gradual and regular ripening period, allowing for the optimal expression of the varietal aromatic potential while maintaining the acidity that each wine requires.A good year for white varieties, marked by intense yet delicate aromas and wines exhibiting both body and freshness. The red varieties have also had a very good year, resulting in intense, fruity wines, full-bodied, smooth and nervy in character.

Grape Ripening

In order for aro-matic and flavour-ful substances to form, the following climate conditions are necessary: lots of sunlight, but without excessive heat, and sporadic rainfall. A marked dif-ference between daytime and night-time temperatures; in other words, sunny, but not ex-cessively hot days and cool nights. This is particu-larly interesting in terms of producing superior aromatic substances with a pleasant mouth-feel sensation.

Mas Albornà is a non-profit association with over 40 years experience in so-cial and labour integration projects for disabled or mentally ill adults in the Alt Penedès region (Barcelona).

ConneCtion to Bodegas torresFor years, Mas Albornà has been actively and publicly collaborating with Bodegas Torres on activities and projects that foster our Corporate Social Responsibil-ity. We collaborate with the Occupational Centre (performing minor tasks) and have begun grafting work at the nursery in La Bleda.Thanks to this joint effort, Torres is now one of the most active companies in terms of these projects, the result and consequence of a history, project, con-nections and company philosophy all aimed in this direction.

Viu la Vinya"Viu la Vinya" represents a step forward in social and labour integration for individuals with disabilities, providing a country house-workshop for learning about and discovering the grapevine and its environment, aimed at primary school children and other groups. At "Viu la Vinya" the visitor's learning is twofold: social and knowledge-based. During their visit, participants discover the grapevine and its environment through educational and practical workshops as well as discov-ering the abilities of the people at Mas Albornà, who work as monitors. For one day, they become the teachers, breaking down several old preconceptions, stere-otypes and prejudices about the abilities of disabled individuals.

Vijazz 2010A splendid encounter of wines to the sound of great jazz

Bodegas Torres participated in the 4th edi-tion of this by now well-established fusion of jazz and wine. The live concert series featured jazz heavyweights like Marcus Miller or the Kenny Barron Quartet as well as many other outstanding artists. The event included guided tours, exhibitions, renowned acts and concerts, while visitors strolling through the celebrated capital got the chance to enjoy the El Penedès Wine and Cava Fair, sampling classics and discov-ering the latest novelties the winery had to offer. Enojazz (a live jazz and wine event) was a big hit at the Vinseum (Museum of Viticulture), with close to one hundred lucky guests discovering how our Fransola, Waltraud and Mas La Plana (1981 vintage) unfolded to the sound of jazz. This was followed by an evening of Enocine, showing the film Let's Get Lost, accompa-nied by our Nerola wine. The many different tastings made the Rambla and our wines even more attractive, resulting in a spectac-ularly high attendance. At our stand, visitors sampled our Atrium range and our alcohol-free alternative, Natureo.We continue with our efforts to show that wine is indeed culture.

AROUND THE WORLD

A year has gone by since I moved to Cu-ricó, Chile with my family. Time has passed quickly and there's no doubt that 2010 put this country to the test: the earthquake, then the miners, whose rescue mission we followed closely on television. In both cases, it became clear how great this country is, how despite upheaval and crises, people know how to start over and look ahead.What I'll probably remember the most about 2010 is getting to know our people better, meaning all of our Chilean colleagues. Oc-casionally, circumstances allow us to get to know people in different ways. The reconstruc-tion effort involved a lot of very emotional moments, and I believe that everyone here at Miguel Torres Chile has given their abso-lute best −occasionally putting the company first, ahead of their own personal needs− and proving that this winery is more than just a workplace.After the earthquake, we started thinking about what we as a company could do to im-prove things, and we decided to work towards certifying our Santa Digna wines −which make up 75% of our production− as fair trade, making us a pioneering company in this area. In doing so, we could guarantee a price that would enable the on-going development of the viticulturalists as well as give us the opportuni-

ty to initiate several interesting social projects in our community.In 2010, we also consolidated our efforts in organic viticulture, taking advantage of the excellent conditions that this country has to offer, given that many of the plagues afflicting European vineyards do not exist here. We hope to adapt all of our vineyards to the standards of organic viticulture over the next 2 years.In December, we welcomed 2011 with a special celebration and a bottle of Estelado. This is a new project that we're developing in Chile. We began working on this sparkling wine more than 3 years ago. The goal is to revive the largely forgotten País variety to produce a high quality, sparkling rosé. It's a very special project since the País variety was the first to reach Chile almost 500 years ago. If it works out, a lot of rural families who cultivate this variety, which brings in very little money, would benefit, and we would end up with a truly unique product.But if I had to pick the most meaningful mo-ment of the year, it would have to be the birth of our second daughter, Andrea, here in Chile. After 30 years of producing wine in Chile, it's about time we had a Chilean in the family!

EVENT

jiMMy CaRteRPays a surprise visit to Bodegas Torres and toasts with Natureo

Former US president and Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter visited the Bodegas Torres facilities in Pacs del Penedès on Saturday, July 3rd. The American leader was presented the 22nd Premio Internacional de Cataluña on July 1st by then president of the Generalitat de Catalunya, José Montilla. Mr. Carter decided to take advantage of his stay in Catalunya to spontaneously visit the winery, accompanied by his wife and other family members. Guided by Ana Torres, daughter of the Torres Group president, the Carters toured the facilities, leaving a memento of their visit by signing one of the barrels located at the entrance to the Margarita cellar.The visit concluded with a tasting at the iconic Waltraud winery. The alcohol-free wine Natureo immedi-ately caught Mr. Carter's eye. Without a moment's hesitation, he invited his body-guards to a toast, spontaneously exclaim-ing, "hey guys, you can drink this one!" Proving yet again the natural, easy charm that he displayed throughout his visit.

The first exports were done through an importer. The situa-tion was difficult at first. Adapt-ing to the Chinese language, cul-ture and traditions demanded an enormous effort. It required years of research and hard work, but the team's tenacity and persever-ance paid off, and Torres gradu-ally carved out a market niche for itself. After 15 years of diligent work, Torres decided to create its own distribution wing: Shanghai Torres Wine Trading Co., Ltd. with headquarters in Shanghai and 5 subsidiaries in the coun-try's main cities, established over several years.

Two years later, with the goal of improving the wine distribu-tion network, Torres expanded its portfolio by including several prestigious, international winer-ies such as Baron Philippe de Rothschild (Bordeaux).Nowadays, Torres China ranks third amongst China's wine importers and distributors. In addition to Torres Spain, Chile, California and Jean Leon, we distribute 400 wines from 13 different countries. The secret of our success? Hard work and plenty of patience.

2009 marked the launch of the Symphony Series, the first Chinese white wine jointly produced by two family-run wineries: Grace Vineyard and Torres. Made from the Muscat variety, the wine is fermented at low temperatures to preserve its unique varietal character.

In 2008, the Vinoteca Torres opened in Shanghai.

October 2009 saw the inauguration of Everwines, the first Torres store in China.

Torres began its Chinese adventure almost 30 years ago. In keeping with its pioneer spirit, Bodegas Torres arrived in China in 1982 when the country had no wine culture to speak of.

NEWS TRIBUTE

jOSé MaRía nuneS"My intention in making films is for everyone to see themselves as a work of art and not feel the need to see anyone else's work."

Filmmaker and poet José María Nunes passed away in Barcelona at the age of 80 while his last film, Res publica, was playing in the cinema. Nunes was born in Faro (Portugal) in 1930. At the age of 12, his family emi-grated, first to Sevilla, where they lived for five years, and then to Barcelona, where he resided ever since. his first film, Mañana (1957), is consid-ered the precursor and first example of what would later be known as the Es-cuela de Barcelona or Barcelona School. Nunes' body of work includes films like Noche de Vino Tinto (1966), Iconockaut (1975), Gritos a Ritmo Fuerte (1984) and A la Soledad (2008).Nunes was a poet and a man committed to a certain understanding of cinema, explaining that his goal was not to tell stories since, to his mind, we had run out of plots a long time ago. he did, however, see the potential in formal and narrative experimentation as a way of reaching audiences through emotion and personal involvement. "Even though I don't have a camera on me, I'm filming all the time," he said.Nunes was one of a kind. We remember him at the Academia de Cine ceremony, re-enacting the scene in which he de-scribes wine. With a glass of Jean Leon in hand, he emulated the main character of Noche de Vino Tinto with the phrase that he will always be remembered by: "The galloping black horse that carries us off to indescribable skies."

In 2011, we will carry out several changes at the winery, both in terms of image and prod-uct portfolio. In a way, we want to get back to the roots of Jean Leon by focusing on our Estate Wines and the unique character of our vineyards. Furthermore, with a view to attracting future customers to Jean Leon, we have incorporated the wine range Petit Chardonnay and Petit Merlot in all markets. These high quality wines are both intense and fresh, marked by varietal aromas and a velvety mouth-feel. Their labels feature a more modern look.Recently, we introduced 2 great wines, Gran Reserva 01 and Zemis 07, into the market. The label for the Gran Reserva 01 was de-signed by my mother, Waltraud Maczassek, a

German artist who has lived in Catalunya for over 40 years. The shades and formal nature of the painting express a state of profound transformation. The quality of both wines is extraordinary, the result of combining two great vintages and unique vineyards. Jean Leon maintains its close relationship with the world of cinema. We anticipated the enormous success of Pa Negre this year. In No-vember 2010, during the Mostra de Vilafranca, we presented the Jean Leon honorary award to Agustí Villaronga in recognition of his career. Pa Negre has won 13 Gaudí awards, 9 Goyas, 1 Forqué and one Jean Leon.

Belén Fabra is an actress with incredible range. If there is one thing we can say for certain about her short, but intense career: she is fearless. her passion for taking risks as a performer have already earned her three nominations, two in the theatre (Valle Inclán and Max Awards for Plataforma) and one in film (Gaudí Awards for Diario de una Ninfómana).

Two of your most notable roles (Marylise in Plataforma and Val in Diario de una Ninfómana) are marked by strong dramatic inten-sity. Do these kinds of roles require some sort of special preparation? When I played these parts, I didn't really think about how difficult they were. In fact, with Valerie, I found it harder to watch her on-screen than to play her. While playing her, I didn't think about it, I simply used whatever resources I had. Other roles did require additional preparation.

These roles gave you the opportuni-ty to work with two of the greatest talents in contemporary Spanish theatre, Juan Echanove and Calixto Bieito. How would you describe these experiences? They were an absolute gift. I had an unbelievable time working with Calixto; he gives you a lot of freedom and likes pushing your boundaries. In moments when you'd normally stop yourself, he has

a way of making you go for it, which ends up being immensely gratifying.Working with Echanove was amazing; he is a committed and passionate performer. I feel privileged to have worked with actors like him, who have such a body of work and talent. I'm eternally grateful for it. I'd work with both of them again in a heartbeat!

You're probably asked this in inter-views all the time. Is it difficult to let go of a character once you're done filming for the day? I suppose what I find difficult to let go of is the work that I've done. I feel power-less when I'm not completely satisfied with what I just finished doing. I like feeling a hint of dissatisfaction, because it inspires me to do better, but sometimes it has a blocking effect, and I end up obsessing about it too much. I'm learning to deal with it better. But it's true, when a character is very intense, it does affect your mood a bit. It's a form of torture that I enjoy. I accept it, it's part of my profession, at least in the way that I approach it.

Some of your television work has been on series made for regional Catalonian television. Do you feel more comfortable working in Cata-lan or Spanish?I studied acting in the U.S. and felt very comfortable acting in English, because

the language was like a protective shield. I was nervous about coming back and acting in my own language (Spanish or Catalan), because it's much closer to who you really are and I felt vulnerable. Now I work comfortably in either one, but I never feel like I'm really speak-ing my own language, because my real language is "tortosino"!

Here's something else we should talk about. When did you know that you wanted to become an actress?At a very young age. I think I was hyperactive and had to channel all that energy somehow. I was always dream-ing up games and performing shows for the whole family with my siblings and cousins. I constantly had to be doing something and one day my sister told me: you should become an actress, and some-thing clicked right then, and I thought, Wow! All this stuff I do for fun could actually be a career.

On the show Gran Reserva, you play a conservative, submissive and inse-cure woman, who is nonetheless willing to do just about anything if she feels wronged. Do you identify with this character in any way?The simple fact of being human already lets you identify with all characters. In this case, well, in some ways...but I don't like comparing myself to a character, because even without wanting to, I'll turn it into something personal. What I try to do is find commonalities on an emotional level. What I like is that Paula changes, she doesn't get stuck as a victim.

Besides your relationship to wine because of the series, do you have any particular interest in wine, tastings or gastronomy in general? I think it's a fascinating and interesting world. Thanks to the show, I've gotten to know it a little better. I've really enjoyed learning about it, and I realised that basically I didn't know anything... When I was studying acting, a teacher did a great exercise with us: based on different wine aromas, we had to develop the personality of a character. It was very useful, because the aromas offer a variety of different nuances. In fact, sometimes I use perfumes for specific characters. The aroma can reveal the personality of a wine...and of a character.

Cardona Castle, built in a Romanesque and Gothic style, is amongst the most important medieval for-tresses in Catalunya. In October 2010, it became the first state-run hotel and museum in Catalunya.Built by Wilfredo el Velloso, Count of Barcelona, towards the end of the 9th century, Cardona Castle experienced its heyday during the 15th century. The salt mines bestowed great power on the castle and its residents: the Dukes of Cardona were the most impor-tant family within the Kingdom of Catalunya-Aragón after the royal family, earning them the popular nick-name "the kings without a crown". The structure and location of the castle, on a hilltop overlooking the salt valley and the Cardener River, made it an impregnable fortress. In fact, it was one of the last strongholds to surrender to the troops of Felipe V in 1714. Like all historic landmarks, Cardona Castle is awash in popular stories and legends. One of them tells the story of Adalés, daughter of one of the Counts of Cardona, whose parents locked her into the castle's highest tower, because they disapproved of her love for a noble Saracen. The tower (one of the castle's gems along with the beautiful collegiate church of San Vice-nte) is now known as the Torre de la Minyona (maiden tower) in honour of this tragic love story. According to another legend, a ghost haunts one of the rooms in the castle... And it's the most popular one in the hotel!Bodegas Torres has chosen this beautiful spot to hold several of its Wine and Mushroom Days over the past 20 years.

Estate Wines share a close connection to a variety and region and thus express the very best of both. They are the highest exponents of quality in the wine classifica-tion hierarchy. This commitment to quality has led Bodegas Torres to join forces with prestigious family-run wineries in the Penedès region and around the world to transmit its philosophy of excellence. These alliances have resulted in two great winemakers' associations: Qalidès and Primum Familiae Vini.

history and terroir in a glass Bodegas Torres has selected its most unique vineyards to produce a range of unmistakable wines that give distinct expression to the place they come from. Winemaking performed with utmost care, slow fermentation, aged in the smallest new oak barriques for exactly the right amount of time: our Estate Wines are a reflection of their place of origin and terroir.

QalidèsThe association Qalidès (a combination of Quality and Penedès) began in 2004 and includes 9 of the most important wineries in the D.O. Penedès appellation (Albet i Noya, Avgvstvs Fòrvm, Can Feixes, Can Ràfols dels Caus, Jean Leon, Finques Torres, Jané Ventura, Mas Comtal and Gramona). The intention is to show the world a different side of the Penedès: a region concerned with the preservation of viticulture, respectful of the environment and the landscape's identity, that seeking to endow its wines with the typicity of each individual vineyard and position them amongst the best in the world.

wine and riBera del dueroThe history of Ribera del Duero runs parallel to the evolving relationship between grapes and wine, born from particular varieties that define the landscape and the character of its peo-ple and culture. The first reference to wine in the area goes back 2,000 years, depicted in a Roman mosaic. The first wineries appeared in the 13th century, set up within the confines of certain villages. Since then, wine and vineyards have become fundamental elements of the area's cultural and economic development.The areas included in the D.O. Ribera del Duero appellation are located on the northern plateau, where four prov-inces - Burgos, Segovia, Soria and Val-ladolid – converge within the Autono-mous Community of Castilla-León.

Continental Climate Conditions The climate conditions in Ribera del Duero are characterised by low rainfall, which, in combination with dry, hot summers (and long, cold winters), gives the area a Mediterranean climate that is essentially continental in character. Soil covered in Tertiary sediments, comprised of layers of muddy or clayey sand with good water-retention capaci-ty. A hilly landscape. The flat and rocky terrain of the valleys is interrupted by craggy hills, often topped by impos-ing castles and scattered pinewoods and forests.

the tempranillo VarietyAll of these characteristics are perfect for growing the Tinto Fino variety (Tempranillo), covering about 60% of the vineyard. Here the variety offers more pigment and better grape acidity than in other Spanish climates, making it possible to produce more elegant and well-structured wines.

the Birth of Celeste roBleIn 2003, the Torres family came to Peñafiel, a town in the province of Valladolid, to produce Celeste, its first wine in Ribera del Duero. Celeste is born at 900 meters altitude, where clouds form patterns in the sky and the stars are close enough to touch on harvest nights. Our desire for constant improvement and offering customers the best options available has driven us to expand the Ribera family to include our new Celeste Roble. Celeste Roble, the youngest Celeste, is born at the dawn of the wine harvest, when the sun begins to brighten the horizon. A nuanced wine that lends exceptional expression to the fruity character and verve of the Tinto Fino variety, along with the aromas of its short yet intense time in the barrel.

Three years after introducing its first wine produced in Ribera del Duero, Torres adds a new star to the Celeste firmament, a new single varietal Tempranillo (or Tinto Fino as it is known in the region), with less oak and all the varietal character of the fruit.

the Vineyards of rueda In the Rueda area, the development of viticulture began in the 11th century, after the Reconquest. King Alfonso VI granted full property rights to people resettling the area. Several monastic orders accepted the offer and estab-lished monasteries where they began cultivating grapes to supply the Castil-ian court with wine.During the 18th century, a more ex-tensive area was covered in vineyards, planted exclusively with the Verdejo variety. The wine's success was partially due to the clarifying properties of the local clay, which produced a very clean and durable wine.Rueda wines enjoyed great commercial success until Phylloxera destroyed two thirds of the vineyards between 1909 and 1922. The area was re-cultivated with vines chosen mainly for their productivity criteria rather than quality. The Palomino grape replaced the Ver-dejo, the predominant variety up to that point, and young wines made from this new variety were sold wholesale.

the appellation of origin The idea of creating an Appellation of Origin first arose in 1935. The proc-ess of recovering the Verdejo and its subsequent rebirth began in the 1970s and has a distinctly French flair. Ad-vised by the great Émile Peynaud, Mar-qués de Riscal, a Rioja classic, moved into the region and paved the way for fresh, fruity whites based on a more modern concept practically unknown in Spain at the time.

This wine-producing region stretches across an area that connects the plateau of Castilla, Galicia and the Cantabrian coast (Valladolid, Segovia and Ávila). The grapes grow in a landscape of gentle hills, at an average altitude of 700m above sea level in alluvial soil, rich in iron and with good drainage. The climate is continental with cold winters and hot summers. The Verdejo is the most typical, local, white variety, taking up over 3,000 hectares. This and other authorised varieties (Sauvignon Blanc, Palomino or Jerez and Viura) are used to produce vintage and non-vintage wines.After establishing ourselves in Ribera del Duero, Priorat and Rioja, we set our sights on Rueda. One of our goals has always been to have a presence in the most important Spanish appellations driving the market's growth. This appellation has experienced significant growth over the past 10 years, particularly with regards to its local Verdejo variety. Verdeo is fruit of a collaborative effort between Torres and the Cooperativa Agrícola Castellana. In producing this wine, our winemakers have selected the best Verdejo grapes and supervised the vinification process at their facilities.

VerdeoThe fashionable white wine

The D.O. Rueda appellation, halfway between the provinces of Valladolid, Segovia and Ávila, is a white oasis in a sea of reds. The area's indigenous variety, Verdejo, has a distinctive style, which Torres reveals in a thoroughly modern and accessible wine: Verdeo.

Verdeo

A bright yellow colour with green highlights. Characterised by distinct notes of tropical fruit and citrous with a touch of fennel. An intense nose combined with freshness, elegance and an extended aftertaste, marked yet again by the variety's characteristic perception of green fruit.

The Milmanda Castle dates back to the 9th century when it belonged to the Cistercian Order of monks, who used it as a fortified farm. At one time, it stood on the border between Chris-tendom and the Arabic world. The origin of its name remains a mystery, but according to some legends, it stems from the king or-dering a thousand men to protect the area from a potential attack, resulting in the name MIL-MANDA ("a thousand sent").

Milmanda1000 years of history

The highlands of Milmanda, in Conca de Barberà, provide the per-fect conditions for growing Char-donnay. Fermented in new French oak barrels, it has a very intense aroma with undertones of vanilla, ripe fruit and distinct spices.

EVENT

jean leOn lightS, CaMeRa, aCtiOn! Third edition of Jean Leon's "Vendimia de Cine"

Last September, Jean Leon's vineyards took a decidedly glamorous turn. Artists from across Spain were invited to participate in the 3rd edition of “Vendimia de Cine” (Cinematic harvest) as well as taste our Gran Reserva 2001, presented by the win-ery's manager, Mireia Torres.This edition featured several guests, including Andrea Montero, Jordi Díaz, Rosa Boladeras, Lluïsa Castell, Mónica López, Asha Miró, Dani Ventura and Zep Santos. As in previous years, the first part of the day involved the actual harvest. Everyone participated in picking Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, which has become a tradition of sorts at Viña La Scala, the estate's oldest and best known vineyard, planted in 1963 and representing over 40 years of history.Later on, the actors competed in crushing the grapes we had picked earlier, producing the must that will eventually become wine. The prize for each member on the win-ning team was a bottle of Magnum Jean Leon Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 1996. The grape harvesters from the 2nd edition, including Ferran Lahoz, Míriam Marcet and Mariona Ribas, also came down for the day to bottle and label their own wine, made from the must produced the year before.

ZemisForty years later, Jean Leon's dream comes true

This legendary wine is made from grapes from Cabernet Sauvignon vines that are more than 40 years old (the oldest of their kind in Spain). The Merlot vines are over 11 years old and the Cabernet Franc over 40 years old. A cherry-red colour, a bou-quet of berries, and notes of spices. Full and fleshy on the palate. Ideal with all kinds of meat, stews, rice dishes and aged cheeses.

D.O.Penedès Varieties 50% Cabernet Sauvignon30% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc Ageing 22 months in French oak barrelsPrice •••••

This Jean Leon jewel is produced from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown on 8 hectares of the legendary La Scala vineyard, the oldest Cabernet vineyard in Catalunya (planted in 1963), located in the heart of the D.O. Penedès appellation. The vines grow in the estate's least fertile, rockiest and most well drained soil. The result is a splendidly structured and complex wine with a deep ruby-red colour, a complex and intense nose, full and weighty on the palate with a long, persistent and hedonistic finish. Considered a historic wine for introducing the concept of region and terroir in Spain, it was also the first single vintage wine produced in the country in 1969. A wine this special deserves an equally excep-tional presentation. A painting by Waltraud Maczassek was selected for the 2001 vintage. Nature is the artist's main source of inspira-tion and a constant in her work. Chromatic variety and mixed media techniques also de-fine the work of this artist, who continuously challenges herself and seeks out new pictorial languages.The artist's most recent work, Transformation, expresses parallels between the universe and life, a shared state of constant evolution much like Jean Leon's Gran Reserva.

The wine is named after the legendary La Scala restaurant that Jean Leon opened in Beverly Hills. Vinification and ageing: fermented at controlled tempera-tures, two-week maceration with grape skins.

Torres 10 Gran ReservaThe nº1 gran reserve Spanish brandy worldwide

With the passing of time, the elegant, round notes of oak blend seamlessly and harmoniously with the intense, spirituous aroma of the venerable wine spirits in barrels of American oak. Dark topaz-coloured, the brandy displays a vivid bouquet with warm notes of spices. Round on the palate and rich in tannins, it unfolds in an expansive and lingering finish.

Price ••

Torres 5Solera ReservaAwake your five senses

Torres 5 is made from three traditional, Cata-lonian white varieties, Xarel·lo, Macabeo and Parellada, and aged using the traditional "Solera" system. Topaz-coloured with beautiful green and old gold highlights. Torres 5 has a deep fla-vour, full of rich aromas with notes of walnut leaves and dried fruit, and an intense, silky and concentrated mouth-feel.

Price ••

FontenacPrestige and tradition

A double distillation process is used in making this brandy, allowing us to select the finest spirits, which are then aged in American oak barrels. A glowing topaz colour with delicate highlights of old gold. An intense and elegant aroma with warm notes of nuts and dried fruit. A velvety, round and immensely soft palate.

Price •••

The distillation of white wines is a traditional practice in the Penedès, dating back to Arnau de Vilanova (13th century). The Torres brandy was born in 1928 when Juan Torres began to age his distilled wines. At the time, these spirits were sold in bulk. Torres 10 was the first brand of Torres brandy, introduced after the Spanish Civil War, and it exem-plifies the entre-preneurial spirit of its creator, Miguel Torres Carbó.

Torres 20Best amongst the best

A symbol of ancient tradi-tion, Torres 20 is distilled from select wines made from the Parellada and ugni Blanc varieties. A noble, dark amber colour and a rich, warm aroma with a hint of nuts and dried fruit. Elegant notes of spices and a round, velvety palate. Currently sold in more than 30 countries.

Jaime IArt and brandy

In honour of Gaudí's work and the winery's founder, Jaime Torres, for his innovative spirit and the thrill of a job well done. Produced from distilled wines of the Parellada and Folle Blanche varieties. The bran-dy's greatest secret is being blessed with astounding age, a rarity in a world driven by immediacy, which tends to forget the serene virtues of prolonged ageing.

Price ••••

Jaime Torres Vendrell es-tablished the Torres company in 1870. Around the same time, An-toni Gaudí built his most celebrated works. Casa Milá, also known as La Pedrera, is considered a sym-bol of Barcelona during that era, a city humming with the creative excite-ment of the Cata-lonian Modernisme movement. In homage to Gaudí and his innovative spirit, Torres created this noble, aged brandy that bears the name of its found-ing father.

Moscatel Oro Floralis is an absolute classic of the Bodegas Torres wines. Muscat wine has been produced for over 200 years. It has always been a highly prized wine, because it fared well on the long, hard journeys across land and sea that wines had to endure in the past.

Try this dish with Celeste Roble. A nuanced wine lend-ing exceptional expression to the fruity character and verve of the Tinto Fino variety along with the aromas of its short yet intense time in the barrel.

"COntainS SulPhiteS", guaRanteed tO laStFor several years, wineries have had to include the phrase "contains sulphi-tes" on the back label of a bottle. Sulphites are one of several naturally occurring salts in wine. They are also added to wine (as sulphur dioxide) as an antioxidant, antiseptic and antibiotic to prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi and yeasts. Thus, they are currently the only foreign element introduced into white or red wine and always with the sole purpose of guaranteeing perfectly aseptic containers.The use of sulphites dates back to the Romans and is completely legal and authorised by legislation in coun-tries worldwide. The amount used is extremely small and thorough studies have demons-trated that sulphites have no negative impact on human health whatsoever. Sulphur is a component of human tis-sue and present in many common food products we consume on a daily basis.Wine usually only contains between 0,1 and 0,2 grams/litre.

The design of current labels can be visually distracting, and we may forget to check if a wine is red or white, the Appellation of Ori-gin, the type of varieties, produc-tion or vintage. For this (and other) reasons, European union legislation has set forth a series of basic concepts that must be visible on the label of every wine produced in an EC member country. The wine label must provide the following details: wine/country of origin, bottler's details, nomi-nal volume, alcohol content and

lot number. The fact that a wine contains sulphites must also be indicated.All of these compulsory details must be presented within the same field of vision on the bottle in a clear and visible manner. These days, our choice of wines is vast and varied, and we are treated to thousands of different designs. Increasingly, the main reason why people choose one wine over another is the design of its label.

Wine is best enjoyed in moderation Drinking wine is one of the great pleasures in life. The chromatic nuances and aromas are its biggest delights, enjoyed leisurely in the company of good friends and family.

WINE&HEALTH WE RECOMMEND

NATuREOOnly 0.5% of alcohol and fewer than half the calories

Natureo is an all natural product with less than half the calories of a regular wine due to its minimal alcohol content. It was conceived with people in mind who for one reason or another cannot drink wine: drivers, pregnant women, people of certain spiritual or religious beliefs, etc. Natureo is a perfect wine to serve with fine food, including appetisers, salads, pasta dishes, white meat and fish.

Since its inception in 1992, FIVIN (the Foundation for Wine and Nu-trition Research) has focussed its activities on evaluating poten-tial benefits of moderate wine consumption on human health from a medical standpoint. To this end, it con-ducts on-going re-search and data compilation on wine and health, supervised by a scientific commit-tee of internation-ally recognised doctors and technicians spe-cialised in health and nutrition.

In talking about wine, we are talking about our culture, land, crops, a long and great tradition. A wine culture rooted in our history, started by our ancestors and spanning hundreds of years.In talking about wine, we are also talking about nutrition and health. Wine should be considered another element of the food pyra-mid. Wine is one of many food items constitut-ing a Mediterranean diet. When consumed in moderation and as part of a meal, wine is good for us.The moderate and responsible consumption of wine is clearly beneficial to human health. Several scientific studies worldwide corrobo-rate the existence of a component known as resveratrol in wine, which has positive effects on our health.Thus, we can safely say that drinking two or three glasses of wine per day, as part of a meal and taking into account the height, weight, gender, health factors, family history, etc. of the consumer, reduces the risk of heart disease and lowers cholesterol. Wine is a natural antioxidant. It has an antithrombotic effect and is helpful in preventing certain cancers, osteoporosis as well as reducing hyperten-sion in men. It has also been linked to lower levels of LDL (the bad cholesterol). The risk of

coronary heart disease increases with elevated levels of LDL. This type of cholesterol binds to the blood vessels easily and can lead to coro-nary atherosclerosis.Currently, FIVIN is heading the European Programme "Wine In Moderation" (WIM) with the goal of promoting responsible con-sumption as a cultural/social norm to prevent and reduce abuse and the harmful effects of drinking alcohol. WIM's goal is to educate teenagers and adults and help them take responsible decisions with regards to drinking, working in cooperation with appropriate au-thorities and a network of entities involved in this issue. At the same time, efforts are aimed at preserving the place of grapevines and wine in the culture, environment and economy of European society.Appellations of Origin and institutions within the wine industry as well as other entities have signed an agreement to join WIM. By doing so, they commit themselves to promoting the central, shared message of moderation and complying with the wine self-regulation code in terms of advertising and commercial com-munication as set forth by the programme.

Sometimes we have to laugh when we remember that we became Torres Gold Club members for financial reasons. We wanted to do a tasting class and Maria José told us about the advantages of being a member: workshop discounts, a gift box of wines at Christmas, free admission to events for a member and a guest, winery tours...We're big fans of the work-shops, the specific topics are very well chosen and appealing, and Nuria and Maria José are delightful and go out of their way to create a welcoming atmos-phere in which to inspire us with their love of wine.

FEEDBACk FROM OUR MEMBERS

I was always interested in wine culture, but it's one of those things you save for the future. Then one day, after a work colleague told me about the Club Torres, I happened to walk by and decided to pick up a bro-chure to see what they had to offer. That's how I got to know the club. Shortly thereafter, I convinced my friend Ana to come along and we signed up for our first tasting course. After-wards, we were adamant about becoming gold members. That was more than 6 years ago!

I got to know the Club Torres through my friend Asunta. I admit, I was stuck in the 80s (or even further back). To me Torres was basically Sangre de Toro. In the late 70s, this was a luxury wine you bought on special or romantic occasions, a break from drinking Savin, Elegido or Don Mendo. I didn't think about it twice and signed up for my first tasting class. More tastings followed: Burgundy wines, Bordeaux wines, cheeses, olive oils, white wines, cocktails, champagne, horizontal and vertical tastings, wine tasting dinners...

I love going to the gather-ings held at the cultural centre from time to time. A fitting combination of interesting theoreti-cal information about products and national and international cuisine, tasting techniques, tast-ings and discussions as well as a fantastic excuse to get together with friends and enjoy our shared pas-sion. Plus, we're ambas-sadors of the brand. Many of our friends and family members rediscover Torres wines because of us!

INTERVIEW

la MaRató and tORReSOur wines, an expression of solidarity

You collaborate with La Marató (The Marathon) on TV3 by cook-ing a paella in your village, Les Planes d'Hostoles. How did this idea come about? How did it develop? Fonsu had the idea. He is the cook at the gatherings of Bon Àpat (Good Food), our gastronomic club. He suggested cooking a paella for 200 people to raise money for La Marató on TV3. At the time, the show was just 3 weeks away!

Did people get involved? We asked the members of Bon Àpat if they'd help out and of course they said yes. I normally organise the Bon Àpat gatherings so I got to work im-mediately. If the idea was to make a paella, we had to find suppliers as soon as possible: Sivaris kindly donated the rice, Bodegas Torres, in addition to the wine, also gave us aprons and bottle openers, and Aigua de Sant Aniol provided water to drink and cook with.

What was your personal expe-rience of the event? Although organising the paella was a lot of work, it was immensely satisfying to see how the whole village got involved, and we managed to raise more than 2,000€ in a village with a population of 1,700. I especially liked talking to neighbours and them asking about the people serv-ing the rice, who were having such a great time.

Did the success of this event lead you to organise any others? We're going to continue with the paella

for the time being. I hope we get to collaborate with TV3 and La Ma-rató for many years to come. And if anyone wants rice for 300 people...

As a member of Club Torres, how important is good food and fine wine to your life? They are my life. That's why I, along with two friends, founded the Bon Àpat Club in 1997. Now we're more than twenty and meet up 3 or 4 times a year. At first, we went to restaurants, but now we meet at a house, which allows us to prepare everything ourselves. This allows us to enjoy the whole process, preparing the food, the ingredients, the cooking and, it goes without saying, the food, especially when paired with good wine. Thanks to Torres and Mauricio Wiesenthal, I discovered the world of wine, and I'll always be grateful to him.

Do you believe this kind of wine and food culture is acquired? Yes. I don't understand people who only defend one appellation or one type of food. Without variety, life would be rather poor. We wouldn't have the pleasure of food and wine pair-ings, for example.

How would you describe your relationship with Torres (on-going since 1998)? I'll never be able to sufficiently express my gratitude for everything I've learned through Torres and what I still hope to learn. And I've made so many friends and acquaintances over the years. Here's to many more! I love saying that!
