  • Carbonated beverages
  • Tastings of premium wines/cavas from 3 different wineries: We visit 3 wineries and you taste wine/cava from another winery during the meal
  • Lunch
Additional Information

We’ll be uncovering the vintners of the renowned El Penedés wine region, while I guide you in my classic 1976 Mehari convertible.

I’ll navigate you through the region’s most picturesque vineyards and family-run wineries, where you’ll engage with the grape cultivators and family proprietors. A representative from the family will demystify the process of wine and cava (sparkling wine not from France) production.

We plan to drop by two traditional wineries nestled in the rural landscape, where we’ll sample some select wines or cavas coupled with appetizers at each stop.

En route, amidst a backdrop of historical vineyards, I’ll divulge the region’s assorted secrets, oddities, and unique aspects.

Later, we’ll seize a moment to unwind, nestled in a grassy expanse among vineyards and aged trees. I’ll set up a picnic, complete with local fare and additional wines/cavas from the region (with an open-ended offer of wine/cava during the meal).

During the winter months, our lunch engagement will be held within a winery or at my homely garage bar.

Mealtime always concludes our tour.

Amazing tour with delicious wine, food, and history. - This tour was incredible and we couldn't have had a better host with Neus. We visited two different wineries and at each winery, Neus gave us a detailed tour and explained how cava and all of the different wines are made. We tried many different cava, white, and red wines, served along with plenty of snacks. During the wine tastings, Neus allowed us to hang out and enjoy the breathtaking views. During the tours, Neus was deeply knowledgable, funny, and treated us like family. After the tours, Neus took us to a beautiful remote area, where she prepared an extensive picnic with delicious Spanish food including an amazing salad, a tortilla, a rice and beef dish, and desert. We finished the tour stuffed and blown away by the experience. Highly recommend not eating before this tour as Neus will make sure you're well-fed! We can't thank Neus enough for her hospitality and being a wonderful host and we very much look forward to returning to Penedés in the future.

Simply Superb Day Smongst the Vines - There were too many wonderful things to choose a favourite. The experience from start to finish was superb. Everyone we met was passionate about their industry, the wine they produce, their culture and community. Beautifully executed and a real taste of what Spain has to offer. Topped off by a splendid picnic table lunch with beautiful food and local wine. Thank you Neus and James-a simply wonderful day

Amazing Experience! - Neus was an amazing host. She did a fantastic job telling us about the area and coordinating on the train. The wineries she brought us to were small family run that produced really great high-quality wines. There were nothing I could recommend to elevate the experience as it was very pleasant from start to finish. This was one of our favorite wine tastings/tours ever!

Great girls day! - This ended up being a private tour for me and my 2 friends. What a pleasant way to spend a day and tour the wineries! We saw two wineries, met the owners, learned about the operations, and of course tasted the wines. The tour ended with a lovely lunch in the countryside. The tour guide was amazing - kind, accommodating and very knowledgeable herself about the area and the wine making process. Highly recommend.

Amazing Experience! - An amazing experience! Neus was knowledgeable on wines and the local region. She was very organized, spoke great English and even helped us navigate the train. Loved that we were able to support smaller family run wineries and Cava makers. The picnic was a lovely touch!!

Sensational experience amongst vineyards - It is not just a route amongst vineyards, it is an incredible experience for all wine lovers or those who want to be initiated into the wine culture! The ride through the vineyards in a Mehari is a great way to see and feel the region and getting to know family-run wineries first hand and tasting their wines is a luxury. And the cherry on the cake is Neus, the creator and hostess of the experience. Charming and with a lot of experience and knowledge about wine, she made us enjoy every moment of the experience. I highly recommend this experience. Do not miss it!

An amazing, once in a lifetime experience! - An amazing, once in a lifetime experience! Neus was friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable. It was an extra treat being in an open-air, vintage Citroen while driving through beautiful scenery. The winery operators were gracious and very informative. The tour ended with a delicious lunch prepared by Neus. Must do!
