Wednesday 29th March
I’ve been able to arrange a super, short Day Trip, to visit Bodegas Enrique Mendoza en Alfaz del Pi. This leading Spanish, not just Alicante, Bodega has exemplary wines – and we’ll be tasting 6 of them, including one of the flagship wines, the Estrecho!
We have a tour of the facility, including the Crianza Room whose heady mix of oak and wine aromas is one of the best things about visiting a bodega! We taste the six wines, there will be also be tapas, bread, cheese and sausage plus Mendoza Extra Virgin Olive Oil served, plus Valor chocolate served with the final wine, a delicious red dessert wine!
Then we go for a three course lunch locally, with wine, claro!
There will be the opportunity to buy, but no pressure to do so!
We should be back at around 6pm depending on your pick up/drop off place.
Pick up will be, depending as above, at around 10:30 hrs – so it’s not even a crack of dawn job!
The cost of all this is just 49€ per person!
Places are limited so please reserve as soon as possible – by e-mailing colin@colinharknessonwine.com or by calling/texting me on 629 388 159.
Gracias,

We were able to obtain places on this sold-out visit on March 29th. We have been fortunate to attend Bodega/Winery visits in several countries but from start to finish this was just superb!
Wonderful arrangements, quite amazing reception at Bodegas Enrique Mendoza which reflected Colin’s strong bond with the Mendoza family and topped off with a fine lunch in a nearby restaurant.
Many, many thanks, Graham and Linda – most generous! I too had a great day out!
