We are about to have a trip to the mountain of remarkable beauty – Montserrat, where Benedictine Monastery overlooks the landscapes. It is situated at the high of 721 m and is more than 800 years old. National shrine and protectress of Catalonia is kept here. This is the statue of the Virgin Mary (XII cent.) with the baby on the laps, which for her dark color of face and hands was named “Black Madonna”. Besides, you will get a unique possibility to listen to the signing of “angel-like” voices of Montserrat – to the local boys’ choir accompanied by organ. This music school was created in the XIV cent. and together with the boys’ choir is considered to be the oldest in Europe.
After that we are going to visit wine cellars of Torres, where you will find out about the family of company’s founders, drive near vineyards by road-train and taste wines. Company “Torres” is the huge wine manufacturing company which production is exported to 145 countries. This company is famous for their wine brands: Sangre de Toro, Mas la Plana, Salmos, Esmeralda and their cognacs and brandies of five-, ten- and twenty-year ageing.
