Penedes wines
Penedes lies south-west of Barcelona and is well worth a day trip out of the city to visit some of the well known vineyards, Torres being the biggest and best known. You can get a train out of Barcelona very easily and do some wine tasting before heading back to the city for more drinking Spanish style!
White wine production dominates with a variety of traditional grapes in use such as Parellada and with innovative wine making techniques over the last few years, new wines being created with Chardonnay, Riesling and other noble varietals are coming to the fore.
