Catalonia is a well-known Mediterranean wine region with more than 20 centuries of tradition that has positioned our wines and Cavas among the best in the world. Wine and cava are part of our culture and our heritage. Therefore, we have hundreds of wineries spread all over the whole region, each one different, and a few of which are outstanding and very unique. Quite close to the monastery of Poblet stands a thousand-year-old castle surrounded by chardonnay vineyards which produce high quality white wines. The emperors Charles V and Philip II, in the 16th century used to stay in this castle to go hunting with their noblemen and lieutenants. An expert guide will walk you through the vineyards, unveil the secrets of the castle and offer a wine tasting among the thousand-year-old walls of this fortress.

The castle is located very close to Poblet, a UNESCO royal Cistercian monastery built in the 12th century, which still houses a community of monks today.  Both the monastery and castle are 1h 45min away from Barcelona, so it makes the perfect combination to enjoy a day out.
