About this activity
If you are fond of wines and want to

discover one of the most prestigious wine areas of Spain, we invite you to come with us to Ribera del Duero. The excursion departs

every day Monday to Saturday from Madrid.

Visit three of their most representative wineries, modern and traditional, and their vineyards. You will do

a full visit in one of them, learning about winemaking in Ribera (riverside in spanish), and understanding tempranillo wine from the grape to the bottle.

A real immersion in the culture of wine. Also included a scenic stop at Segovia, with free time.

 

First stop will be one of the most representative wineries in the region, where you will taste the freshness and elegance of their aged wines, feeling the extraordinary complexity of this land.

Two more wineries and cellars will be visited during the day.

Every stop will bring a surprise, and you will learn about traditional wine making, modern architecture and limited productions that make special wines.
