What to expect
Your guide will collect you from central Barcelona and drive your private group to Penedès. You'll visit three wineries in sequence, spending time at each with a wine expert who walks you through their unique production processes for wines and Cava. At each stop, you'll taste their varieties and learn how to identify them. Mid-tour, you'll break for a three-course meal at a local restaurant with a glass of Cava included. After lunch, tastings continue at the remaining cellars before your guide returns you to Barcelona. The pace is leisurely — you're not rushing between stops, and there's no competing for attention with other tour groups.
