About this experience

Travel from Barcelona to Montserrat on a small-group tour lasting approximately half a day. Explore the Montserrat Monastery and, if you choose the option, visit a boutique historic winery located in a 10th century castle. During the winery tour, you will see the vineyards and the wine cellar, learn about wine production, and taste three wines along with a local tapas lunch. An optional upgrade is available for a VIP Winery Experience, which includes private access to the barrel room and a tasting of three premium wines. This exclusive access to the winery's private barrel cellar, typically not open to the public, allows for an intimate tasting guided by an expert, featuring samples drawn directly from oak barrels and large foudres using a traditional pipette.

Itinerary

1

Abadia De Montserrat

Enjoy a guided tour in Montserrat and visit all the highlights of the monastery by the hand of your local tour guide. You will then enjoy some free time to a palate some traditional foods made by Montserrat monks or farmers, as well as soaking in this special place where nature, culture and spirituality meet.

2

Oller del Mas

If option selected. Oller del Mas is not a common winery – its superb ecological wines have earned plenty of awards in the recent years. In fact, one of its wines won the “Best Wine in Catalonia” award in 2018. But the cellar is not only special for its wines. You will take a stroll by the vineyards, learn how the wine is made, and discover all of its secrets. *We work daily with different low-production, family-owned boutique wineries. Due to logistic reasons, you might visit another cellar instead of Oller del Mas.
