Constitution and presentation of the Association

During the 1st Regenerative Viticulture Conference, held in Vilafranca del Penedès this past June, Miguel Torres announced that plans were underway to establish an association: a meeting place for people to share information and experiences about this carbon-cycle-based winegrowing model.

Those plans have now come to fruition. The Regenerative Viticulture Association is up and running thanks to the efforts of many people, who are part of a fantastic team.

From left to right: Eduard Muixach, partner of AgroAssessor; Montse Catasús, wine maker of Família Torres; Francesc Font, founding partner of AgroAssessor; Miquel Torres, general manager of Família Torres; Christian Barbier, head of viticulture at Clos Mogador; Mireia Torres, general manager of Jean Leon and Joan Huguet, co-owner of Can Feixes.

After signing the charter, the five founding members presented the Association to the press during a luncheon in Barcelona. Please click here to read the press release.
