Guided Ribera del Duero Wine Tour
- Leave Madrid behind for a visit to the undulating countryside and a stop at three different wineries along the Ribera del Duero, often called The River of Wine for its incredible production.
- The region is famous for the tempranillo grown and bottled here, a world-famous Spanish grape that produces a red wine with a full body and undertones of different fruits.
- Wine has been produced here since the twelfth century, and along with the tempranillo, there are also magnificent whites and claret that you'll have the chance to taste as you plunge into the area's complex history.
- Stop at your first winery, a newer facility famous for its focus on high-quality small-batch wines that are already internationally acclaimed, and admire the stunning modern architecture of its every corner.
- You'll tour everything from the cellars to vineyards, learning more about the gorgeous area you just drove through, and then have a guided tasting of a number of wines with an expert.
- Continue to the next winery, an open-plan concept that brings nature and light inside the complex, and taste their products alongside traditional local treats, like cheese produced nearby.
- Enjoy free time to eat lunch on your own at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy a full Castilian lunch, a tapas tasting, or a lighter meal, whatever suits your fancy!
- Make your way to the final vineyard of the day, the most fascinating of them all, and home to almost four miles of underground tunnels built by monks to cure and preserve these wines.
- Dive into the history of the area with your walking tour through these underground cellars, and finish with a final wine tasting with a local sommelier before driving to Segovia.
- Here, you'll have free time to explore the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of the Old City and the Roman Aqueduct, one of the most famous examples of Roman design and ingenuity in all of Spain.
- After this, it's time to head back to Madrid for an evening of rest and relaxation, after all, you've learned, tasted, and seen on this day tour.
