Most of our Barcelona Wine Tours will take you to the Penedes county. Not far from Barcelona, this area is the cradle of cava, the local sparkling wines. Although most cellars specialize in cava there, they also produce very interesting whites, and some new reds are stating to emerge with fantastic results. This area can be easily be visited in one morning, or you can stay for lunch at some local restaurant for a wonderful full day trip. It is also quite easy to combine it with other interesting destinations if you don’t want to spend a full day at the cellars.

If you have time for a longer day and you are a big wine amateur, our Barcelona Private Wine Tours can also take you to the Priorat county, a total must for red wine lovers. Their slate soil confers a unique mineral taste to their wines. Productions are very limited due to the harsh climate and soil conditions that don’t allow for large crops. That’s why rather than going for mass-production, the local cellars focus in high quality and uniqueness.
