Our tour of the grounds and process was quite informative. And the tasting was amazing. She moved us through really sensing all the nuances of each wine and chocolate pairing. Top notch.

Best wine experience!

One of the best experiences I’ve had in wine tasting. Our guide was professional courteous and knowledgeable. You definitely get more than what you paid for. We had a private tasting in an intimate room after the tour that felt VIP for sure. We even got to meet the owner of the winery, who happened to be passing by and he was the nicest guy. After the tasting we were left in the room to enjoy the rest of the wine bottles with our party and to take pictures. Wonderful experience!

Response from Host, Feb 2022

Thank you for visiting us! We are glad you enjoyed our experience, it was a pleasure having you. We hope to see you soon again!

Wine with notes of chocolate

Teresa_B, Sep 2021
The pairing with chocolates was eye-opening, and it was nice to be in the room near where they were working on the grapes. We could hear the machinery and our hostess apologized, but I liked knowing I was in a working winery.

Response from Host, Sep 2021

One of the highlights in Valle de GPE!
