Description

En agosto es cuando nuestro equipo de profesionales de la uva, los viniviticultores, se empiezan a alterar, pues observan el estado de las viñas y con el calendario en mano, deciden el mejor momento para dar comienzo a la vendimia, que por lo general, se da en los últimos días de agosto y los primeros de septiembre. Esta es una etapa mágica, en la que el aire se perfuma de uva madura, en su paso previo a convertirse en el delicioso caldo. Es por ello que es este, sin duda, el momento más apropiado para que nos visites y seas testigo del proceso. Podrás ver a los jornaleros y si lo deseas, acompañarlos en su jornada. Para este día redondo, te preparamos un almuerzo típico campero que lo acompañaremos, cómo no, con uno de nuestros mejores ejemplares. El lugar donde estés no es un problema, tenemos posibilidad de recrear esta experiencia en el Penedés, La Rioja o en Jerez, además de las Rías Baixas o Castilla La Mancha…tú tan solo indícanos en qué zona deseas vendimiar, ¡de lo demás nos ocuparemos nosotros!
