About Torre del Veguer
The wine estate Torre del Veguer is situated in the Garraf massif, west of Sitges (Catalonia). Torre del Veguer encompasses a total of 15 hectares of vineyards, olive, and fruit trees, all cultivated and processed on the estate itself. Because the entire vineyard is located within a radius of less than 500 meters around the winery, the grapes can be processed almost immediately after harvest. This allows them to maintain the fruit in optimal conditions and produce the very best wines! In addition to quality, environmental concern is one of their primary focuses. To underscore their commitment, they have officially held the organic label for all their wines since 2016.
