Familia Torres founded its winery in Vilafranca del Penedès in 1870, 150 years ago, but its roots in the winegrowing traditions of Penedès date back to the 16th century. Five generations have carried the family business forward, passing on their passion for wine culture from parents to children – a passion steeped in respect for land and tradition, and a firm belief in innovation. Today the winery focuses on wines from unique vineyards and historical estates, as well as the recovery of ancestral varieties, which could provide long-term solutions. Since 2008, Familia Torres has taken active steps to combat the climate emergency, implementing adaptation and mitigation measures to reduce its carbon emissions. Familia Torres has a historical connection to Penedès, Conca de Barberà, Priorat, and Costers del Segre, but now its presence extends to vineyards and wineries in preeminent Spanish wine regions – Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Rueda, and Rías Baixas – and in Chile and California. It is a member of Primum Familiae Vini, an association representing twelve of the oldest and most prestigious wine families in Europe.

Mascaró still makes shoes in the same place where the company was founded in 1918, now with the third generation of the family running the business. Everything is made with loving care by craftsmen and women, many of whom are sons, daughters and granddaughters of the original workers. Only the finest Italian and Spanish leathers are used and great attention is paid to fit, style comfort and quality. Mascaró was a caring company long before the term corporate responsibility was coined, respecting its workers health and wellbeing, impacting the environment as little as possible with careful use of materials and recycling wherever possible, and behaving in an ethical, sustainable way in all of its activities. Mascaró is a vertically integrated business, designing, manufacturing and commercializing its own products and has over one hundred stores in twenty seven countries on five continents.
