Savor the exquisite local tastes while you raise your glass to an unforgettable experience!
Meet your guide in Port Olimpic to begin an incredible road journey to the winery of DO Alella, one of Spain's most renowned wine-producing regions. This family-run winery is a stunning 14th-century home surrounded by vines with a view of the Mediterranean that greets guests with knowledgeable sommeliers. You will be able to take a trip through its unique vineyards, which have been farmed for more than 25 years utilising both contemporary and organic methods.
It has not always been this way, since the wines of Alella have a long history and important significance in Catalan wine. Known and loved at Roman times, Pliny and Martial are cited as Laietan wines. Alella wines were, in the middle of the Middle Ages, the favorites in the Barcelona Seu, to later become one of the quality wines exported from Catalonia throughout the world, with particular attention to the overseas colonies where there was a large population of Catalans.
After visiting the vineyards, learning about winemaking and tasting their exclusive wines, it will be the perfect time to cook and to eat. You will learn all the secrets behind the Paella, Spains most famous dish in a fully immersive and dynamic workshop guided, from beginning to end, by a professional chef.
Once the paella is ready, you will enjoy eating your creation while you savor the best wines.
Raise your glass with the best wine for an unforgettable experience!
