WAULTRAUD CELLAR
Type
The Torres family requested Barba to create a place to present the best winesof their vineyard. From the outset it was clear that besides the technical aspects,the program should display the spirit and emotion of the wine, withoutfalling into a theatrical design.The project is divided into three levels, respecting the natural elevation of theland. The first underground level is where the barrels of wine are held in reserve.The second is developed as a cloister. This is a space for meditation and reflectionthat includes a fountain in the center representing an element of lifeand the flow of time. The transparent glass bottom of the fountain connectsthe center of the courtyard with the center of the underground plaza with abeam of light, symbolizing the union between the interior and exterior of theland. Finally, the third level houses a tasting room and museum. The simpleand forceful forms of the volume are surrounded by water and are linked tothe atrium by a waterfall.The materials include COR-TEN steel and concrete, which is used in the largefrieze of the arched square and chipped in the columns. Respect for the landis evident in the large earth-sheltered roof planted with local species to minimizewater consumption. The installation of a photovoltaic tree creates theenergy required to light up the complex.The artistic collaboration includes sculptured pieces, such as the Familia ReservaPétrea, by Xavier Corberó, guarding the entrance to the cloister, and MutusLiber, by Josep Cerdà i Ferrer, in the reflecting pool in front of the tastingroom. The tasting room features paintings by the artist Waltraud Maczassek.
