CIMS DE PORRERA

The elaboration and aging of wines and their bottling

Porrera has a history dating back at least to the 12th century, when it was part of the Siurana territory and passed through various owners, including the Pedrabona Monastery and later the Escaladei Monastery. The town has been the scene of medieval conflicts, Carlist Wars, and liberal episodes, standing out for its insurgent and liberal character. Over the centuries, the local economy has been marked by the cultivation of vines, nuts, and wine production, suffering crises such as phylloxera in the 19th century. In the 20th century, migration and industrialization affected the population, although the proximity to Reus and improved infrastructure helped maintain a relatively stable population level.

The Porrera Town Council provides municipal services such as urban planning, public facilities (swimming pool, municipal center, school, medical clinic), promotion of cultural and festive activities, and support for rural tourism. The municipality stands out for its rural accommodations, wine cellars, restaurants, and local businesses, with the wine sector being one of the most important, with numerous wineries producing quality wines.
