Recently, the new limited edition of Celeste Crianza dedicated to the city of Valencia was presented at the restaurant La Colonia de Carmela. The design, painted directly onto the glass, features the most iconic buildings of the Levantine capital and the stars visible in the Valencian sky in October, coinciding with the harvest season.
This new edition of Celeste’s City Skyline series also has a charitable component, as part of the proceeds from each bottle sold will be donated by the Familia Torres Foundation to the project “La Mare Que Va” by the Asindown Foundation. This initiative, located in Marina de València, is a hospitality and tourism training center for individuals with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities, aiming to promote their social and professional inclusion.
At the end of 2024, the Familia Torres Foundation already supported hospitality professionals in the Valencian Community affected by the DANA storm through a financial donation to the Valencia Hospitality Business Federation (FEHV). It also collaborated with the Valencia Association of Sommeliers and Wine Enthusiasts (ASEV) in a charity tasting and dinner in support of the Mira’m Foundation, the Valencian Community Association for Children with Autism, whose proceeds – which the foundation doubled – were specifically allocated to aid those affected by the DANA storm.

From the Familia Torres Foundation, we participated for the second year in Wine & Jazz, an event organized by communicator Gloria Vallès to raise funds for biomedical research on endometriosis. The event took place on June 26 at the Gran Hotel Central in Barcelona, with the attendance of around a hundred people, and featured the altruistic participation of wine projects led by women. In our case, we presented 4 wines from Jean Leon and Familia Torres: Jean Leon 3055 Chardonnay, Jean Leon Vinya Le Havre, Viña Esmeralda, and Secrets del Priorat.
At the beginning of the event, Gloria Vallès – who suffers from this condition – and Dr. Carmona, a global reference in gynecology and an endometriosis specialist, explained what endometriosis is (a silent disease that affects 10% of women and has no cure) and how research is progressing. It was a heartfelt event, enlivened by live jazz music. The nearly 7,000 euros raised will be entirely donated to the Fundació Clínic per a la Recerca Biomèdica, led by Dr. Carmona.
