Charming Wineries and Private Wineries: The Luxury of Wine Tourism
Las Casas Entrecanales Domecq also manages charming wineries in rural settings that offer authentic wine tourism experiences. We distinguish ourselves by allowing visitors to discover the soul of wine: from vineyard care to tastings in intimate lounges. Some of our private wineries are available only for small groups or special events, allowing for an even more personalized experience.
Luxury Wine Tourism in Rioja and Rueda
Both in Rioja Alavesa and D.O. Rueda, the wine tourism we offer is immersive and sensory. It’s about connecting with the land through activities such as harvesting, pruning, tasting, pairing, relaxation in a historic house, art, and zero-kilometer cuisine.
