  • 2005 :: This year’s vendemia (harvest) looks like it will be a low yield. However, this usually means high quality.

  • November 2005 :: We like to seek other areas of Spanish wine production. One such is around the towns of Utiel & Requena. Bodegas here have won prestigious awards at recent wine competitions. You may well have holidayed on the Costa Blanca, without knowing that a very important wine producing area is on the doorstep. We’re visiting here during November.

  • Spring 2006 :: As usual we look forward to show off La Rioja next year. Plans are well underway with itineraries for those trips being produced.

  • 2006... Will also see grape-escapes.com introduce other areas of Spanish wine production for you to consider sampling, so keep on looking…



  •  

    will give you the opportunity, using family and local connections, to pick some grapes that could end up in the bottle of wine you eventually have on your table. You will have the chance to experience the journey from the grape to the glass.

    Now, wouldn’t that impress your guests and be a talking point for all concerned?

    More than that, you will be able to give them more than the usual tasting notes, now found on the back of most bottles of wine these days. You will be able to speak with authority on how the wine was produced – having been there, seen it and done it – perhaps even wearing the T-shirt to prove it!

    Join GRAPE ESCAPES together with a small and very select group of enthusiasts for the cultural wine experience of a lifetime. What could be better, than tasting wines and eating local cuisine in the company of locals? We promise, that by the end of your trip, you will have had a unique and unforgettable educational wine experience – taking you from the vine to the table.

    • Join with a select group of fellow travellers, who all share a common interest.
    • See wine-making from the inside of the bottle not just from the outside.
    • Enjoy authentic gastronomic delights - eat and drink in the company of locals.
