Familia Torres has 2 Tesla High-Power Wall Chargers (HPWC) and a regular Electric Vehicle (EV) chargers in their guest parking lot. And of course, just like you often find in the United States, there was a regular gasoline car parked in one of them even though there were many other regular parking spots available. Familia Torres seems to be very much into electric power as their tour train is 100% electric powered and they have a number of solar panels to help power the winery. Even the roof of the tour train is covered with solar panels to charge its batteries.
