TRAVEL PLAN

DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES ● Welcome. Visit to the vineyard and presentation of the historical and geographical context: We will find ourselves in front of the spectacular meander that the Miño River forms as it passes through the A Cova area, called “Cabo do Mundo”. There we will be able to appreciate one of the most recognizable images of this part of the Ribeira Sacra before starting our tour of its vineyards. From there, we will descend through the steep vineyards of the Ribeira Sacra, discovering the secrets that this land of great wines keeps. We will know some historical and geographical details to better orient ourselves throughout the day and we will observe the traditional techniques of "heroic viticulture" and the hardness of working the vineyards on vertigo slopes.

· Private catamaran tour on the Miño River Exclusive catamaran ride through the meanders of the Miño River, enjoying the most beautiful landscapes of the Ribeira Sacra from the river and getting to know its vineyards, lush forests, islands, submerged villages and even the famous waterfall of Augacaída. If you are not chilly, don't forget your swimsuit!

● Visit to the  winery with tasting of 3 wines

● Course: Introduction to wine tasting and Ribeira Sacra wines Our guide, Jorge Vila, will give us some clues to better understand the Ribeira Sacra wines and its different sub-areas and recognize some basic characteristics in them, while tasting 5 wines and we exercise our senses for the tasting.

· Food-tasting and after-dinner in an old restored cellar. Our last stop will be a winery that is more than 300 years old, dug out of the mountain and right at the foot of the river. A place full of peace that we will enjoy exclusively and where we can, in addition to tasting the wines from different sub-areas of the Ribeira Sacra, taste a selection of local products of the highest quality.
