Wine Tasting Workshop with Organic Wines in Almería

Context The organic wine tasting workshop takes place at Bodega Fuente Victoria, located in the Alpujarra Almeriense within the IGP Laujar-Alpujarra region. This vineyard estate blends tradition and sustainability in a rural landscape of vineyards, olive trees, and almond groves. The path winds gently through the vineyards, where the air carries the scent of thyme and damp earth.

The Experience The session begins with a guided tour of the vineyards and the agricultural museum, where traditional and ecological viticulture methods are explained. You'll then explore the winery to understand the production process. The workshop concludes with a 3-to-6-wine tasting of organic wines, paired with local sausages, olives, and almonds, all under the guidance of a wine expert. You’ll learn to identify aromas and flavor profiles while enjoying a peaceful atmosphere that enhances focus on texture and fruit notes in each wine.
