Miguel Torres Winery

One day after returning back from the States Jeff and I went to a local winery.  Not only do they have a large vineyard here in Spain, they also have vineyards in Chile and California. The winery is located in Vilafranca del Penedes and was about a 1 hour ride by train.  Of course we did run into a complication as the train station it was to depart from was under construction, so we had to hop on to the Metro and take it 8 more stops to get us to the train that was to take us to Vilafranca del Penedes. 

Here is Jeff on our train ride.

After our 2 hour journey from our house we arrived at the Miguel Torres Winery.
