Un projecte europeu busca convertir els cellers en paisatges preparats per contenir incendis forestals

Vilafranca del Penedès (ACN). – Wineries from Catalonia, Spain, France, Portugal, and Italy have joined the “Fire Wine – Vins de Foc” project, an initiative framed within the European FIRE-RES program focused on technological innovation to promote resilient landscapes and prevent wildfires. The program was presented this Tuesday at a seminar held in Vilafranca del Penedès and is led by the Forest Science and Technology Centre of Catalonia. Its goal is to equip forested lands in wine-producing regions with tools to help create fire-adapted landscapes. The opening session featured firefighter Marc Castellnou, inspector of the GRAF wildfire units, and Josep Roca, sommelier at El Celler de Can Roca, who both highlighted the role of vineyards and wine as natural firebreaks.
