✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the innovative cellars of Familia Torres in Catalunya, Natureo Tinto represents a pioneering achievement in the world of de-alcoholized wines. Launched in 2008 as a response to changing lifestyle demands, this ground-breaking red is crafted primarily from Syrah grapes. The wine undergoes a traditional fermentation process before the alcohol is gently removed using an advanced spinning cone column system, a technique that preserves the grape's natural aromas, structural tannins, and vibrant fruit profile. Familia Torres, with their centuries-old winemaking heritage in Spain, successfully bridges the gap between ancient viticultural tradition and modern technical ingenuity, offering a true-to-varietal expression of Catalan Syrah without the alcohol.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1870 by brothers Jaime and Miguel Torres Vendrell, Familia Torres stands as one of Spain's most historically influential and forward-thinking wine dynasties. Spanning prime estates across Catalonia (Penedès, Conca de Barberà, Priorat, and Costers del Segre) as well as Rías Baixas and Ribera del Duero, the house negotiates a mosaic of terroirs—from maritime granitic soils in Galicia to high-elevation calcareous clay and slate in northeastern Spain. Viticulturally celebrated for pioneering the Torres & Earth climate program, co-founding International Wineries for Climate Action (IWCA), and advancing regenerative farming, the estate also champions the revival of pre-phylloxera ancestral varieties like Forcada. Vinification balances precise temperature control, native yeasts, and specialized aging vessels ranging from granite vats to traditional oak casks. Benchmarks such as Pazo Torre Penelas Blanco Granito, Sons de Prades, Forcada, and Esplendor Vardon Kennett reflect an unwavering commitment to site specificity, structural clarity, and sustainable viticultural excellence.
