Here is a small wine tourism itinerary for you to do this October 12, or any other day. Save it, share it and repeat it!
Day 1: Arrival in the Heart of the Wine Country
The adventure begins in one of the great historic cities of Castilla y León, such as Valladolid and Burgos. These cities are not only brimming with architectural wonders and profound histories, but also serve as perfect entry points to the wine country by road access, as well as by public transportation possibilities. Don’t want to drive? The AVE leaves you in the center of both cities, but if you prefer to go at your own pace, with a driver at your disposal, click here, book and gain comfort.
You will find plenty of accommodation options in this Community. 4 and 5 star hotels or charming rural lodging. Once you are settled in your accommodation, start your wine experience by selecting from the exclusive experiences offered by Thegetawine. Visit a traditional winery, where you will get an in-depth look at the meticulous art of winemaking, or a modern winery where you will learn about the latest winemaking technologies and zero carbon footprint. Taste from your glass of wine the different varieties of each appellation of origin. Stroll through vineyards, learn about their terroir and architecture in each winery, getting to know everything related to this world.
Day 2: Delve into the Wine Heritage
Dedicate your second day to an in-depth analysis of Castilla y León’s wine heritage. Choose from the region’s iconic appellations of origin, such as Ribera del Duero, Rueda, Arlanza, Cigales, Toro, León, Arribes del Duero, and delve into lesser known regions such as Tierra de Castilla y León or Dehesa Peñalba, where you will be able to experience first-hand the diverse soils and grape varieties that make Castilla y León in a wine lover’s paradise. It is the perfect time to visit the most beautiful avant-garde, innovative, traditional, family or centenary wineries, as well as the villages that represent this wine tradition.
With Thegetawine you can visit several renowned wineries, each with its own unique history and winemaking philosophy. Let yourself be carried away by wine tastings that will reveal the subtleties of Tempranillo, Verdejo and other local varieties. Do not forget the Castilian gastronomy. Suckling lamb, a good “torrezno de Soria”, “arroz a zamorana”, black pudding, “cecina”, “hornazo”… the possibilities are as wide as they are tasty. Choose a restaurant, savoring exquisite dishes paired to perfection with local wines. If you want to choose in detail the products of the land, look for the quality seal Tierra de Sabor.
Day 3: Discover Cultural Treasures
Take advantage of your last day to immerse yourself in the cultural treasures of Castilla y León .
Did you know that the Duero was a natural border between Moors and Christians? As a result, we have a rich heritage of military and defense architecture. Explore our medieval castles, such as the Alcázar of Segovia, the wall of Ávila, the castle of Zamora or the castle of Peñafiel, which also houses the Provincial Wine Museum. In all of them you will see that history is intertwined with local wine production. Some of our historic wineries are located in the vicinity of these castles, allowing for a comprehensive cultural and oenological experience.
