Visit a winery of the 19th century and its draft

About this tour

Step into a restored Spanish winery that shuttered for three decades, preserving its 1881 heritage and traditional carbonic maceration techniques. This 90-minute visit unlocks the vigneron's craft through the cellars where wine aged in obscurity, now reopened to reveal how methods passed down since the 19th century still shape the bottles today. Sample two wines paired with light nibbles.

Highlights

• Original 1881 winery architecture and restored fermentation spaces
• Learn carbonic maceration, the traditional Spanish method
• Taste two estate wines with artisanal context
• Light snacks complement the tasting
• Pushchair-friendly cellars and accessible throughout

What to expect

You'll walk through stone cellars where vintages matured behind closed doors for 30 years. A guide explains how carbonic maceration—where whole grapes ferment under their own weight—shaped the house style since opening day. The restoration honours original layouts: barrel rooms, pressing areas, and storage vaults remain authentic to their function. Afterwards, sit to taste two wines made using those same techniques, with bread and local fare to cleanse the palate between sips. The pace is leisurely, suited to curious drinkers rather than specialists.

Good to know

Wear flat shoes for uneven cellar floors. The temperature stays cool year-round. Prams and strollers navigate comfortably. Service animals welcome. No tipping expected. Bring water if sensitive to cool underground spaces.
