This year's good weather during September and October has been excellent for both harvest and wine tours. We have had people from many different countries in Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Toro, Galicia, Jerez, Cataluña and Portugal, and we have confirmed that the demand of quality wine travel has increased a lot. We hope it will get even better.

This time we propose you to plan a golf and wine vacation in Spain or Portugal. We feature a large wine group very open to winery visits and tasting, Allied Domeq wineries. A charming country lodging in Rioja, Casa de Legarda. And a steak place to eat in San Sebastian, restaurant Aldanondo, a traditional break in the town of modern cuisine. For more ideas check out our agenda.

NOTE: We would like you to send us your contributions for the newsletter: description of wineries or wines you enjoy, articles about cities related to wine, interesting festivals and events, comments about tours you have enjoyed or not.

WINE and GOLF in SPAIN and PORTUGAL

This month we propose to combine golf with wine and gastronomy. In every wine region one can golf opportunities with top rated golf courses, amazing food and great wines.

A great idea for your next year vacation. More information
