Johann’s wine tours had been highly recommended by several friends who have gone on multiple tours with him. Everything was very well organized; Pickup in Valencia, explanation of wine making techniques-both historical and modern and selection of wines to taste. Very informative and interesting. We went to Requena first to visit a wine museum complete with caves from the Moorish times and to taste. A short journey by car and we were in the midst of the vineyards where we were able to learn of the entire process, grape to bottled product. Tasting wine among the blooming lilacs and purple irises was a lovely experience. On to Utiel for a three course lunch-with wine, of course. A very lovely day.

I had a wonderful time with Lara and Eduardo as they transported me to Valencia from my London kitchen. They provided a list of ingredients and were charming and patient when I produced my authentic paella. They cook alongside you on Zoom checking precisely browning, liquid levels and all other key processes. Lara is English so I had no worries with communication. Eduardo gave lots of historical and cultural information. I highly recommend this and look forward to visiting Valencia in real life.
