Interview with Torcuato Huertas Tomás of Bodega Viñas Purulio

Purulio is a natural wine bodega founded by Torcuato Huertas Tomás in Marchal, Granada. This Spanish winegrower, who has dedicated his whole life to the countryside, has three hectares that he himself has planted on the north face of the Sierra Nevada. His Andalusian wines convey terroir, respect for nature and patience. This is his law: no rush, “because they are very bad advisors”.

He has always been dedicated to the cultivation of olive and fruit trees, until the early 80s, when he discovered his passion for wine. Inspired by the young wine that his great-grandfather used to make, Torcuato not only continued, but improved this family tradition.
Torcuato Huertas Tomás has three hectares of vineyards planted with 21 varietals in three different locations. All of them are located in the south of Spain, in the Alhama Valley, at 900 and 1100 metres above sea level.

In this exclusive interview, our CEO & sommelier asks him everything you need to know about his natural wine cellar.
