What to expect

Your guide will lead you through the working parts of the winery, showing you fermentation vessels and explaining the interplay between traditional and modern techniques. You'll move into the cooler barrel cellar—the heart of the ageing process—where rows of oak casks sit undisturbed. The final stretch takes you to a proper tasting room where three wines are poured and paired with complementary food. It's hands-on enough to satisfy curiosity without requiring prior wine knowledge. Expect about 90 minutes total, with the tasting portion lasting 20–30 minutes.

Good to know

Wear comfortable shoes; cellars involve walking on uneven surfaces and stairs. The underground barrel room stays cool year-round, so bring a light layer. Arrive 10–15 minutes early. The three-wine tasting is moderate in volume—manageable even at midday.
