Description
If you’re into premium wines, good food and discovering local life, you’ll love our private Penedes Wine Tour. We’ll take you to 2 small boutique organic wineries producing renowned, small-batch wines in the heart of the locals’ favorite wine area, “El Penedes”. Together with your guide, a local wine expert, you’ll spend a wonderful day tasting signature wines. And you’ll get to know the real people behind the cava and wine production in the Penedes wine region, as both winery visits will be offered by the winery owners themselves. The Penedes wine area is located only 30 minutes drive away from Barcelona and is home to over 300 wine producers, thus offering a large variety of wines to be discovered. Your wine journey will include a selection of incredible premium cavas, red, whites, roses or the ancestral, a natural single-fermentation sparkling wine. Expect to discover not only the tradition of wine in Catalonia, but its most recent innovations as well. In total, no less than 8 tastings of the finest organic, small-batch wines and cava are included in this private Barcelona wine tour. This Penedes day trip includes a private lunch with a winery owner. Expect fantastic food and wine with a highly knowledgeable winemaker and lots of fun. This is a very unique, customizable experience- a must for wine lovers. All the wineries we’ll take you to are always small, organic and family-run. And all the visits will always be fully private and run by the winery owner or the winemaker him/herself, not just with any guide. Above all, we’ll always make sure you get an authentic and personalized experience you won’t find in any of the large-scale tour companies. In conclusion, expect to meet great people and to taste fabulous wines, most of them elaborated using indigenous grapes. This private Penedes wine tour is definitely a must for all those who wish to enjoy a unique high-end local food and wine experience, far off the tourist radar. As with all our other experiences, we have very limited availabilities. Make sure to request (and book) well in advance!

What they say about this experience:
"The Penedes Wine Tour with the winery owners was so amazing and intimate and full of experiences and surprises that I won't give away! I hope to be able to come back and do this again!" ~ Lucida P. "Fantastic tour! We were a bit hesitant to book because it is definitely a pricey experience, but it was well worth it. We were two couples each traveling with a baby and Guillermo was so accommodating. He was able to get a car seat for each baby and communication was very smooth throughout the whole planning process. He chose two different wineries, both of which we really enjoyed and would not have found on our own. Excellent day, highly recommend!" ~ Adriane K "I wanted to book an experience that was out of the tourist way. I did the Penedes wine tour with Barcelona slow travel and I'm very glad I booked the tour. Barcelona slow travel is a small bespoke company who organises private tours so whilst this can be more pricey, I preferred it as the tour was more intimate. The tour was well organised, Guillermo (the owner) picked me up from the hotel 10 mins early and we had private transportation organised. We visited two family owned wineries and had a great time at each, plenty of delicious wine and food was served. Highly recommend to book with Barcelona slow travel if you want an intimate experience and to see another side of Barcelona." ~ Rhonda D.
