Wineries of Montilla Tour

If you wish to discover the secrets that go into wine-making, sign up to the Montilla Wine Presses Tour. Enjoy a selection of tapas and their very own wine produced in the Lagares (wine presses) visited. All of this on a route which will tell you everything there is to know about vineyards, the harvesting of the grape and the special wine-making process of the tastiest and best-known wines in the area.

The old wine presses preserve traces and vestiges of beams all of which are found around the caseríos (country houses). Alongside our English speaking guide, wander amongst the family-owned vineyards on a guided tour that will take us deep into the reforms and advances of traditional production right up until our current days. This is all about the history of local wine but also about the improvements made to the facilities and machinery.

Be amazed by the technical skills that provide the wine with such wonderful flavor and the beauty of flowers and the countryside around the vineyards. Taste the wine in the very same production place, explore the halls and the great Lagares. The Agro Montillano is a real cultural heritage in the Sierra of Montilla and it here where we will learn about the extraction process, fermentation and even the crianza ageing of the wines.

Did you know that the activity that takes places in the Lagar is more than 100 years old? Right from the beginning of the wine´s elaboration process, careful and special techniques have been added so as to not lose that initial sweetness. The tasting includes 2 tapas which means you don´t just get to taste the wine but also the exquisite local gastronomy.

Some of the Lagares are modest family cellars full of history and tradition, whilst others boast large rooms that have passed on from generation to generation ensuring the wine´s identity is never lost. Discover the flavours that are drawn out of the oak barrels that age the wine and indulge yourself in the most welcoming ambiance in the wine production.
