El Prat de Llobregat

El Prat de Llobregat, located near Barcelona, is notable for two recent developments. Firstly, Padró & Co Rojo Amargo vermouth from Padró i Familia, produced in the region, was awarded the title of best Catalan vermouth of 2026 at the Premis Vinari dels Vermuts Catalans, in addition to a Vinari Gran Or in the reserve vermouth category. This recognition highlights the quality and distinctiveness of the vermouth produced in the area. Secondly, a highly protected natural area within the Delta del Llobregat, near El Prat, is making headlines for its limited accessibility. It is only open to the public on ten days each year, with very small groups allowed entry. One of these rare access days is upcoming, offering a unique opportunity to explore this otherwise restricted environment. This underscores the area's commitment to preserving its natural resources while occasionally allowing limited public engagement.
