November 26, 2021 Leida Jutras

Arcos de la Frontera (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈarkoz ðe la fɾonˈteɾa]) is a town and municipality in the Sierra de Cádiz comarca, province of Cádiz, in Andalusia, Spain. It is located on the Northern, Western and Southern banks of the Guadalete river, which flows around three sides of the city under towering vertical cliffs, to Jerez and on to the Bay of Cádiz. The town commands a fine vista atop a sandstone ridge, from which the peak of San Cristóbal and the Guadalete Valley can be seen. The town gained its name by being the frontier of Spain's 13th century battle with the Moors.

We booked a tour and tasting including tapas. Natalia was a fabulous host! Thank you so much for a great day at Huerta de Albala! After the tour of the winery, we had a sit down tasting of about eight wines and tapas. We left with a trunk full of fantastic wines.

I was first attracted to this building as I heard laughter coming out. I peaked i and saw that there were older folks playing cards and dominoes and having a great time. I walked in and saw they had a bar (1 euro coffee and milk, 2 euros breakfast which is coffee and milk and a roll) and beyond that various art exhibits, room dedicated to the famous Spanish dancer Antonio, another room dedicated to writers and poets from the town along with old printing machinery, etc. Clean bathrooms, free entrance, nice garden. Be sure to go upstairs for more paintings of Arcos.
