THIS TRIP IS NOW FILLED
You’ll be joining Sommelier Erica Archer on a 7-night small-group trip to Spain, visiting the internationally-acclaimed wine regions of Ribera del Duero and Rioja with exclusive visits to their best wineries, magnificent wines, food, architecture, art, and history that these regions have to offer. This trip begins in the magnificent city of Madrid with a delicious wine reception, dinner, and stay for our arrival night before departing for the ancient city of Segovia on our route to Ribera del Duero and Rioja. Space is limited, and our small-group trips do fill up quickly. If you think you’d like to join us, we do advise booking early.
In addition to tasting many great wines, you’ll be learning a lot about the art of wine appreciation from a great teacher on visits to world-class wineries enjoying incredible wines and delicious dining experiences throughout your stay. High-quality wine, food, beautiful scenery, some adventure and relaxing too—you are in for an incredible trip.
