About this tour
A 4.5-hour morning expedition into Utiel-Requena's wine country, led by a sommelier versed in Valencian viticulture. You'll start in the medieval village of Requena, descending into 9th-century storage caves where clay amphorae still line the walls, then taste wine in situ. Next comes a private winery near Utiel—vineyards, cellar walkthrough, and a second tasting—before returning to Valencia by midday. Hotel or port pickup included.
Highlights
- 9th-century grain and wine caves beneath Requena village
- Sommelier-guided explanation of local grape varieties
- Two separate wine tastings at historic and modern sites
- Private vineyard walk and cellar tour near Utiel
- Air-conditioned transport with hotel/port pickup
What to expect
Pickup at 9:30 takes you northwest into wine country. The morning unfolds in two distinct phases: first, exploring Requena's subterranean caves where amphorae sit undisturbed after centuries, sampling wine in that atmospheric setting. Then a 30-minute drive to a working winery where you'll walk among the vines before entering production areas and tasting their current releases. Your guide contextualises everything—soil, climate, fermentation choices. Expect a relaxed pace; this isn't a rush. You're back in Valencia by 2 p.m., leaving the afternoon free.
