Surrounded by the historic cellars, you taste wines that are rarely poured side by side — guided by a specialist who helps you decode the nuances of aroma, structure and ageing potential. Each masterclass offers a different expression: Vargellas reveals elegance, perfume and finesse. Terra Feita expresses structure, power and historical depth.
