About this tour
Spend a full day in Spain's Rueda wine region exploring two distinctive ecological producers. You'll walk through their vineyards, descend into centuries-old underground cellars, and learn how local winemakers craft their whites. A small group (maximum 6) means genuine interaction with the growers themselves. The day includes two guided tastings, a three-course lunch at a Michelin-recommended restaurant featuring local produce and wines, and transport between sites.
Highlights
- Medieval and Renaissance estate with 140 hectares of vines
- 17-metre underground passages lined with aging oak barrels
- Pick grapes, understand soil and regional character firsthand
- Two structured tastings with ecological wine producers
- Three-course Castilian meal with charcoal-grilled meats and local wine
What to expect
You'll start at a historic complex of restored buildings dating back to the 15th century, set deep in vineyard country. The winemakers explain their methods as you move through the working vineyard, then tour their production area. At the second estate, you descend into 17th-century subterranean chambers where wine rests in oak—genuinely atmospheric. Between visits, you'll taste the wines made at each place, paired with artisan cheese and cured ham. Lunch happens at a restaurant known for grilled meats and fish cooked over charcoal, with Rueda wine alongside. Expect genuine conversation with people who've spent their lives tending vines here.
