A unique and unforgettable wine experience - This was a great experience visiting this famous wine producing region and having tastings at three wonderful boutique wineries. However, what made this experience exceptional was the tour guide Enrique whose passion for wine and knowledge of the wine industry in Spain was unsurpassed. Enrique is a winery owner himself and his passion for the entire process of wine making is evident as he discusses the process, types of wine, the grapes, the land, and the ins and outs of wine making. You get to meet the owners of several wineries and hear them tell their experience and have tastings with them as well as tours of the vineyard and cellars. A tour that is definitely worthwhile and I highly recommend it. It’s unforgettable and unique, thanks to Enrique.

One of the best experiences in Madrid - It is a tour that every person who visits Madrid and is a wine lover should do. Visits several wineries in the Ribera del Duero region. Everyone on each of the visits is extremely friendly and Enrique's detail and attention are key for you to enjoy the day even more. You can not lose this!

Excellent experience - We wanted to take a tour of the Ribera del Duero wineries and we contacted Enrique from Wine Tour Madrid and the experience was extraordinary. His selection of three different wineries enriched us with knowledge of the world of wine. He took us from the oldest to the most modern process in wine making. At all times we feel very safe and confident. His knowledge of the wine industry, professionalism and attentiveness was impressive. We feel very satisfied and it is highly recommended.

Super Wine Tour - This trip with Enrique was spectacular. He picked us up at our hotel then gave us lots of fascinating information before we arrived at our first stop. This was an educational experience as we saw the local’s wine cellars plus we were treated to a viewing of an actual wine press that was being restored. We stopped next at Cair and really had a great experience touring with the winery’s hostess prior to our tasting. Next we went to Aster and frankly we could have moved in. What a delightful hostess who presented us with the perfect wines for the day. This place is not to be missed. Lastly we went to lunch at xxx with some nouveau style food that was as pretty and tasty. Enrique was full of information, passion for wine, and great knowledge about the region. He was welcoming, warm, and personable. This is really a great personalized tour that is immensely worth it!!

Beautiful day in Ribera del Duero - Excellent day crafted with a mix of traditional and modern Ribera del Duero for us to experience. We visited three wineries with tours at the first two and a wonderful lunch with wine pairing at the third. Qique arranged everything perfectly and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the region and history. Highly recommend!

perfect - One of the highlights of our trip! Enrique picked us up at our hotel (which was super convenient) and took us to 3 wineries, from a larger producer to a small family farm. Enrique is a winemaker himself, so he was extremely knowledgeable and just a great, friendly guy. The winemakers knew him, so it was like being taken by a friend. Go!

Best Day Ever! - We were in Spain for twenty eight days. The wine tour with Enrique as our guide was the highlight of our trip! Enrique was an amazing guide, so informative and knowledgeable. He was so personable. The three wineries we visited were all so different but all three had great wine. When we are in Spain next we will be sure to do this again. I highly, highly recommend the tour with Enrique!!

Magical Wine Tour - Words cannot fully capture the experience of this amazing wine tour….you have to experience it for yourself.
Our group of 4 booked the WINE TOUR MADRID full day Ribera del Duero private tour with pick up from Madrid with Enrique. Enrique, the business owner and our guide is a certified wine expert and winemaker himself.
His knowledge of the region and its wineries is unsurpassed. Our tour included visits to 3 wineries that were unique from each other and all exceptional. We had a delicious lunch at one of the wineries and visits to a couple of small villages along the way for a truly immersive experience.
This is not a “cookie cutter” tour that you might find from a large operator, but personalized and unique. We have been on many wine tours in different places in the world and this ranks at the top.
NOTE: At this writing the online reviews are limited as Enrique recently started his own company after working for a larger operator for quite a few years. Do not let that deter you.
HIGHLY recommend. You will not be disappointed.
