After making an appointment the day before, we were received today by Noemi. A very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Actually we never had a winery visit like this, very personal, very informative and presented with passion and pride. Starting with a rosé, we went through the whole winery and tasted two probes from different barrels. Very interesting. Then we finished off with tasting a selection of three wines with a delicious pairing of Spanish dishes, in fact a complete lunch. When you are in the Ribera del Duero area, this is a “must visit”.

It was a good full-day tour overall. If you are in Madrid, this a great sightseeing option to visit both Avila and Segovia. Both cities are really beautiful. It’s worth it! Unfortunately, our group was big, and we were rushed all the time. That's was a shame because there is a lot to explore in those two cities.

At first we thought that this seemed a bit expensive, but as it was a special occasion we decided to go all out, and I'm so glad that we did - it was definitely worth every penny. Giuseppe was our guide and he absolutely made the day for us. On the way in he talked about the the types of wines we were going to taste and their history and we all learned a lot that we didn't know before. The first place we visited was a family run winery which was very friendly and offered a personable tasting of their excellent wines with cheese. The second was much a much grander affair and again we learned a lot as we explored with a glass in hand. The lunch itself was absolutely delicious with enough options to please everybody, and you can pick a bottle to enjoy with it - which was a really nice touch. Originally I thought two wineries wouldn't be enough, but it was absolutely perfect. We tried so many lovely wines, with the help of recommendations from Giuseppe. It was the perfect mix between educational and really good fun. I'll definitely be going again (and requesting Giuseppe as my guide when I do so!)

This review is for the wine retail, NOT the cellar tour. We did go to the cellar tour and upon leaving asked about retail sales. They took me to a cellar behind a hidden door with a thumbprint reader to get in which was very cool. There were certainly some amazing wines in there and we wanted to have a few special bottles shipped home. We went with their recommendations but since we were on a tour of Ribera we had little time to research the recommended wines. My wife just said get it and let’s go. Something I will never do in the again. It turned out we were either overcharged or their prices are just outrageous. They charged me $390 for a 2012 Vina Sastre Pesus. Turns out I could get this for under $300 elsewhere in Spain and even in the U.S. Worse they charged me $280 for a 2011 Aalto Ps which avg mkt price is not even half. Luckily I swapped that one out for something with a fairer price. The other wines were also about 35% over avg market prices but thank goodness they weren’t nearly as expensive bottles. Just as bad as their pricing was their communication. Upon purchase they said they would send an email confirmation of the purchase with shipping details. A week went by without any confirmation so I send an email to their general mailbox to request an update as well as a call courtesy of our hotel’s conceirge and still no response for 2 more days. I was just about to attempt to cancel the order when they responded and since it was such a hassle already I just kept the order in place. With spending so much on high end wine, you would think their customer service would be on point and if they had reasonable prices, I’m sure they would have long term customers. Not sure how they remain in business but I will certainly not purchase from here again. For anyone looking for wine in Spain, definitely check out Vila Viniteca for not only a great selection, but great customer service and great prices.

I was only in Madird for a few days and this tour highlighted all the main attractions and points of interest in Madrid. Amazing value at Euro14 for a 2 hour tour, even though around 20 minutes is spent stuck in traffic, I suspect it would be the same on most days traving around a major european city. There is a recorded audio and also a tour guide on the bus that speaks good english. Our tour guide was Diana who was very knowledgeable and caring towards my children. I would say its an exellent way to experience Madrid.
