Source Summary
The president of the Família Torres winery, Miguel A. Torres, has just published his memoirs, A Life Among Vineyards (Planeta Gastro, 2026). Torres, who has been key in the transformation of Spanish wine in recent decades, recounts the milestones of his professional career and reveals intimacies of his family life. Although the winery's history dates back to 1870, the book mainly covers the period between the Civil War, when the winery was devastated, and the present, with Torres, 84 years old and the fourth generation of the family that has managed the winery, becoming one of the world's most involved winemakers in the fight against climate change.
