The Ribera del Duero (Valladolid). Gastronomic breakaway

A wine-producing land par excellence with excellent quality wines and unbeatable Castilian gastronomy await you on this day.

When someone hears about Peñafiel, the subconscious takes them to the world of wine. Bottles, barrels and wine cellars take over the traveller's mind, but visiting Peñafiel is much more than setting foot on the cradle of the Ribera del Duero. To visit Peñafiel is to travel back in time without the need for a time machine; it is to open the palate to the flavours of yesterday, today and tomorrow; it is to experience first-hand the culture, art and tradition forged over the centuries. It is, in short, to look back with a sidelong glance, while walking forward with a firm step.

The Villa de Rueda is located in the south of the province, 40 km from Valladolid.

The first historical mention of "Roda" dates back to the 10th century. During the 17th century, King Felipe IV granted it the title of villa. Since then, there is documentary evidence of the relationship between Rueda and wine and why its wine is world renowned.

And the city of Valladolid, the former capital of Spain, is very famous for its pinchos, and you can't leave without trying more than one.
