What will I see in this Penedes Wine Tour?

The guide and the driver will meet you at your accommodation to head towards our first destination: a family run Cava only 45 minutes away from Barcelona. You’ll visit their facilities, learn how the cava is produced, the history of the family and, of course, you will taste their wines and sparkling. Local food will be served with the wines, this way, you won’t need to have lunch after the visit.

Afterward, we’ll head towards the first organic wine maker in Spain. This is still a family run business and they’ll be glad to welcome you in their home. The smell of the wood and the coolness of the cellar will unveil some particularities of their know-how. At the end of the visit, you will taste three wines.

The last part of the tour will be a nice stroll around the town of Sitges. Bathed by the Mediterranean, this was a popular holiday destination among the bourgeoise at the beginning of the 20th century. We can still breath this laid-back atmosphere along the narrow streets and blue patios.

Expenses to be expected

The wine you wish to buy.

Is this a chauffeured tour?

Yes. Actually, it would take a while to reach the wineries by public transportation and there is no connection between them and Sitges. This is the reason why we propose this tour as a guided and chauffeured tour. As a result, you will enjoy every minute of your day out of town while we take care of all the logistics.

What kind of food we will be eating?

We propose local food to pair these great wines and cavas produced out of local grape varieties. Bread with tomato, fuet, ham, cheese, croquettes and Spanish omelet as well as some salad are the ingredients of a great lunch. And all of them locally made in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, the capital of the cava region.

Why the Penedes area?

This wine region is one of the oldest in Europe. Back in Roman times, some wines produced there were sent to the Emperor! Actually, the name of Sitges, means something like Amphoras, because it was the port used to send it to Italy. Nowadays, the area has over 300 cellars producing wines and cava and they are famous worldwide thanks to the awards they win year after year.

Yes! I want to take this tour

Anna was great! She was informative without being boring, catered to our specific sight-seeing requests, and kept us fully enlightened and entertained. How this woman has so much knowledge, I don't know! She literally had the answer to every single question we had. We stopped for a coffee mid-way as she could sense we were getting tired from walking and I enjoyed chatting to her socially. I 100% recommend her for anyone going to Barcelona!

We engaged Anna for a 3 days private tour in Barcelona. She is very dedicated and knowledgeable on every places of interest in Barcelona. When my child wasn't feeling too well during the trip, she was flexible and accommodative to our last minute changes and requests. My family truly enjoyed our trip in Barcelona and had a wonderful time spent with Anna. If you are looking for customized private tour, Anna will be the best person to engage!!

We concur with all the previous wonderful reviews of Anna and her team. We ended up having three tours with Anna and each one was different, informative and superb. If you would prefer to soak in the city and keep your nose out of the guide books and maps contact Barcelonina. Our trip to Spain had been derailed but once we contacted Jordi, everything started to improve. These folks have it together, make great suggestions on what to do and are patient with letting you make up your mind. Barcelona would not have been nearly as fascinating without them.
