Description:
For the past 40 years, Familia Torres has pursued an ambitious project to recover ancestral varieties long believed lost to the phylloxera blight of the late 19th century. In restoring part of Catalonia's vinicultural tradition, the fifth generation of Familia Torres looks toward the future, seeking authenticity and producing unique wines. Forcada is the only white grape among the more than 50 varieties which have been found so far, and not only does it display great winemaking potential but the capacity to adapt to climate change. Planted and grown in Alt Penedès, Forcada is surprising in its aromatic intensity and freshness.
