We have a great line-up this year, as well as a slight format change. We will still be serving a light breakfast and mimosas on the bus, and we will still have ample water and beer supplies. However, instead of having a bunch of food on the bus BETWEEN wineries, we will be enjoying some of the great food the Valle has to offer AT each winery. For more details read on...
Our first stop will be Malva, where we will have a four-course tapas pairing with wines from Penelope.
Next we will visit Corona del Valle. Here we will split the group into two, where one group will go on a 25 minute vineyard tour (including a glass of wine), while the other group enjoys a 4-wine tasting accompanied by cheese platters for the group. When each group is finished, we'll swap so everyone has the full experience.
The third winery is TBD.
Finally, we'll end at my friend Jorge Maciel's winery, where we will enjoy a four-course food and wine pairing dinner specially created for us by his new chef.
