This week, a seminar was held to present the Fire Wine – Vins de Foc project at the auditorium of VINSEUM, the Museum of the Cultures of Wine of Catalonia (read the article about the project).
The opening session featured Marc Castellnou, inspector of the GRAF wildfire unit of the Catalan Fire Service, who joined via videoconference from the University of California, Davis, and sommelier Josep Roca from El Celler de Can Roca. They spoke about the role of vineyards and wine as a barrier against wildfires.
We share with you the transcript of the session, which was moderated by journalist Cati Morell.
