Highlights
  • Finca Ca n’Estella - Beautifully crafted sparkling wines and local food await in Ca n’Estella cava winery to captivate your senses while you learn about the region and the fascinating history of the family who runs the cellar.

The winery is currently managed by Anna Vidal, the 3rd generation in this winemaker family to own the estate. It will be on the gorgeous veranda of her very own family house that you will be served traditional cuisine in the shape of local hot and cold tapas, paired with their top quality cava.

The winery’s Rabetllat i Vidal cavas and Clot dels Oms wines produced at this cellar have been granted more than a hundred awards in very prestigious national and international competitions, including the Best Chardonnay of the World (Chardonnay du Monde) for its 2011 Gran Clot dels Oms Chardonnay.

Castlexperience wine tour was great! - Pol, our driver and guide for our private tour, did a fantastic job from pickup at hotel, 2 wineries, and return to hotel. He was very knowledgeable and sharing of his experiences and knew the wines well.

Montserrat & family winery - We had a great day! Bel showed us around the Montserrat Monastery and was very attentive, making sure to adapt to our needs. The wines at the winery were exquisite, and the place itself was charming and peaceful. Bel also gave us excellent recommendations for places and restaurants in other cities we’ll be visiting in Spain. Highly recommend!

Best private tour we've ever taken - Best private tour we've ever taken, thanks to Toni. We got to taste (and bring home!) some tremendous wines and Cava, and learned a lot about the history and processes of these award-winning wineries. And all of it was put in the context of the rich cultural history of the area, which Toni knew extremely well. He was a lot of fun, and it was the perfect start to our Barcelona vacation.

A must do - Bel made our trip! - Bel was a fantastic guide for our day enjoying wine outside of Barcelona. We had great conversation all day while she educated us on the wines and wineries of the region. The wineries we visited were so special, filled with great history, and were family owned and operated. The car was clean and comfortable - we even had fun getting to share some of our favorite music with Bel. Great day! Would highly recommend, a highlight of our trip to Spain!

Fantastic Wine and Cava day! - Javi was our guide on this fabulous day. We were celebrating a birthday and it was the unforgettable day we wished for. The first winery (fin ca n’Estella) was such a special experience. The Cavas and Chardonnay were incredible and the hospitality (and amazing lunch) made it unlike anything we’ve done before. They even arranged a birthday cake and candles! From the moment he picked us up in Barcelona to the minute we returned home, Javi made this OUR day and we cannot thank him enough. We would highly recommend Javi and Castle Experience. It was easy to book, they communicated well via email and even called the morning of the tour to confirm arrival and details. The day went perfectly. 🙏🏻👏🏻🥰

Exceeded expectations, not rushed or impersonal, truly a wine tasting experience from start to finish. - Today, our wine tasting tour guide wa s Javi Rodriguez. Javi was simply amazing! His knowledge of the art/science of wine making and wine making history of Finca Ca N'Estella and Oller del Mas was matched only by his passion for the wine sampled. What a way to cap off our visit to Barcelona, Spain. Thank you Javi!
