AbadÃa Retuerta: stars on the golden mile
AbadÃa Retuerta LeDomaine is not just a destination, it is an integral experience in the Douro Valley, an experiential destination in the Douro Valley to enjoy without limits.

A sophisticated space with more than nine centuries of winemaking tradition that finds its raison d'être in the wines that reflect the quality of the terroir. A privileged place, an estate where you can feel the care and work well done.
Bodegas Fundador: brandy will be your best friend
We travel south to Jerez de la Frontera, the birthplace of fortified wines and brandy. Bodegas Fundador, the oldest winery in Jerez, founded in 1730, is a living monument to history.
And if you want history captured at the table, you have to try the Gastro Visit Experience. First you enjoy a guided tour of Bodegas Fundador, and finish this unique tour with a fantastic paired menu at the Casa Fundador restaurant, in the heart of the winery.
Casa Fundador offers a well-kept, pleasant and modern space, with a terrace where you can enjoy an exceptional gastronomy. Each tapa and each dish is carefully designed to harmonize with the brandies, wines and cocktails that bear the unmistakable seal of Fundador. You will discover how brandy is a must for the kitchen, both in the preparation and pairing.
TÃo Pepe: eating on Spain's most beautiful street
Since you are in the Marco de Jerez, stop by Bodegas Tio Pepe, for its restaurant Pedro Nolasco offers an unforgettable dining experience that combines the wine tradition of Jerez with a signature cuisine of the highest quality and does so with stunning views of the Cathedral of Jerez, at night it is absolutely delicious.
This exclusive space invites you to try paired menus that highlight the uniqueness of the generous wines of the region, such as fino, amontillado and palo cortado. Each dish is carefully designed to enhance the notes and textures of the wines, creating a very unique synergy.
Next to the Cathedral, you are accompanied by the historic architecture of the wineries and one of the most beautiful streets in Spain that houses the entrance of Pedro Nolasco. In short, a must.
Bodegas Beronia: Avant-garde and flavor in the heart of La Rioja
Our last stop takes us to La Rioja, at the foot of the Sierra de Cantabria. Bodegas Beronia represents the perfect symbiosis between Rioja tradition and the warmth offered by great friends.
Because Beronia is a tribute to friendship. It was born from the fraternity between a group of friends from San Sebastian who found in La Rioja a common place to eat well and drink even better. Today, 50 years later, its wines are the reflection of that affection that is kept alive in the winery and in its gastronomic offer you can tell that in Beronia they know how to eat.
In Beronia we propose you to learn how to cook the dishes that you will enjoy later. Live the essence that gave birth to the winery: the Txoko. Now you can join this oenological experience and share it with your friends and family: a gastronomic workshop that unites learning, tradition and flavor in a warm atmosphere, where bonds are strengthened between laughter, glasses of wine and delicious dishes.
A gift for your life.
