This is followed by a typical Riojan tapas lunch. You will visit a wine estate in the afternoon before returning to the hotel.

Your private wine guide will arrive after breakfast as you explore the architectural jewel that has already become a symbol of Ribera del Duero with a spectacular visit to start your day.

Sample a platter of suckling lamb with the wines of Ribera del Duero before visiting a prestigious bodega, one of the most renowned wineries in Ribera del Duero.

Day 5: Cultural Sites Before Your Journey Home

As you meander home, visit Peñafiel Castle located in Peñafiel, Valladolid.

Or if you have the time, a visit to the impressive Dinastía Vivanco museum is always a must – a fascinating look at not just wine, but the culture behind the drink over the last 10,000 years. We also recommend a visit to the Guggenheim Museum.
