Guests participate in picking, sorting and grape selection before a full gastronomic experience with roast lechazo suckling lamb from the Burgos region, each course paired with wines from the Emilio Moro range by the winemaking team.
Distinctive Arzuaga estate experience combining a vineyard walk across the Golden Mile vines with a visit to the Finca La Planta deer reserve (home to deer, mouflon and wild boar), followed by a structured tasting of the Arzuaga range with cheese and charcuterie. A wine-plus-wildlife experience unique to this estate.
Hands-on blending experience at Bodegas Legaris.

Theoretical explanation of barrel influence; available for groups of 6-30 Monday to Saturday.
At Abadia Retuerta LeDomaine, harvest season brings guests into the picking and selection process across the estate's various pago vineyards.

Exclusive small-group format in the 12th-century abbey setting.
The Converso Experience package at Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena combines accommodation, breakfast, thermal spa access, the Converso tasting (the hotel's own Tempranillo wine) and visits to nearby DO Ribera del Duero wineries. The 12th-century Gothic cloister and frescoed chapel provide an unmatched monastic backdrop for wine and wellness.
Guided tour of the 15th-century Penafiel Castle and the Provincial Wine Museum, concluding in the ground-floor tasting room with a guided sampling of DO Ribera del Duero wines.
