Description

Visit the Rueda Denomination of Origin, known for its white wines made primarily from Verdejo grapes, on a day trip from Madrid that highlights both tradition and innovation.

The journey begins with a comfortable transfer to this wine-producing region. Throughout the day, you will explore several wineries where different winemaking approaches are presented, from historical techniques to modern production methods. One of the stops takes place in a winery linked to monastic traditions, featuring underground cellars and lesser-known processes that shaped the region.

You will also spend time in the vineyards, learning about the vine cycle and how it influences the character of the wines. Guided tastings offer the opportunity to recognise aromas and structures typical of Rueda wines, led by a wine expert with recognised qualifications.

A distinctive part of the itinerary takes place in a network of 14th-century underground tunnels, where a final tasting is conducted alongside a local winemaker. This setting adds historical depth to the overall experience.

There is free time for lunch in Matapozuelos, where you can choose between traditional cuisine or more refined dining options. A full-day experience designed for those interested in understanding Spanish white wine at its source.
