Bodega, Wine Tasting and Lunch - Wednesday 10th March

Depart Esmeralda 8.45
Limited numbers

A coach has been booked for the group who are going to Yecla, bodega Daniel Castano, on March 10th - the cost is 40 euros which includes the coach trip, a visit to the vineyards, a talk in English and a tasting supervised by Raquel from the Bodega. Afterwards we are having a meal, chosen by us, cooked by their staff on the premises, in the dining room also accompanied by further wines.

The bodega has a good reputation and its wines receive high praise from wine guides. We will be tasting a variety from their nine wines on offer - mostly they use the monastrell grape and also a white chardonnay, a syrah, and a mixture of garnacha and cabernet sauvignon grapes. A wine of theirs was selected at the wedding of the prince of Spain.

We hope the trip will be informative and entertaining and that we all enjoy a good day - maybe we will also come back knowing a little more about the wine industry. Full payment due when booking at the meeting, or next day at the bank.
