Digby In the hotel Torel Avantgarde, we have art and design as an

inspiring source. Here Sir Kenelm Digby gave us the name and

involved us with the expression of his art, was emblematic and

distinctive figure of the 17th century English philosopher, gourmet

philosopher , intellectual, member of the private consul of King

Charles I of England.

He published several articles in aristocratic magazines, culminating in

his cooking, "The Closet of Eminently Learner SIR Kenelm Diged KT

Open".

Here the man, who is considered to be the father of the wine bottle -

the typical translucent green bottle, resistant and stable in the format

that surrounds us inside the hotel – reflects upon his art. The bottle

was produced starting in 1630 in his glass factory, and is used and

identified until today.

Digby, therefore is a tribute to the artist who expressess himself in our

space, baptizing us with this name and through his work. He

transports us into a world where wine is the protagonist, and acts on a

stage above the river, among castes with striking profiles and the wine

regions of Portugal, the demarcated region “Vinho Verde” as the

queen of a special song.
