    First, we were given a link to a scavenger hunt around the village, discovering its best areas and its history. It was great fun and enriching. The winery is beautifully decorated in a medieval style, with soft lighting. The explanations about how they make wine were very educational, and discovering their secret was amazing. We tasted three wines made with a unique grape variety, accompanied by delicious Iberian cured meats. A highly recommended experience.
