On the other hand, the Penedès Tourist Promotion Consortium, which manages the Penedès Wine Route, has also been audited and has achieved a very good score in the areas of destination planning and management, tourist promotion and marketing support. According to Valls, President of the Consortium, obtaining this certification, which has been revalidated since 2004, is a testament to the high standards of quality and excellence that characterize the wine tourism offer of the Penedès Wine Route.

This is a great milestone not only for the route itself, but also for the companies that are part of it. Through constant innovation, diversification, the quality of the tourist offer, respect for sustainability and the value of the wine heritage, the Ruta del Vi del Penedès continues to consolidate itself as an essential destination for wine lovers and travelers looking for an authentic and enriching experience.
