Seasonal tours

Wine experiences that only run a few weeks a year

Penedès changes through the seasons - almond blossom in February, peach harvest in June, grape harvest in late summer. These tours are designed around what the countryside is actually doing right now, with short windows and small groups.

25 August – 13 September ~2 hours Penedès

Wine Tasting Paired with the Grapes

€69 per person

Harvest is the only time of year when you can taste both the fruit and the wine it becomes. Inside El Jardí dels Sentits winery, surrounded by tanks fermenting the new vintage, we pour 5 wines paired with the very grape varieties they're made from. You can also arrive by train to Lavern-Subirats (R4 line) and we'll pick you up there.

For a short harvest window from 25 August to 13 September, the cellar at El Jardí dels Sentits fills with the smell of the new vintage - crushed grapes, fresh must, the first bubbling ferments. This tasting is built around that exact moment.

You'll taste 5 wines, each paired with the very grape variety it was made from. Fresh grapes in one hand, the finished wine in the other - the clearest way to understand how a variety's character carries from vineyard to bottle.

Inside a working winery at harvest

The tasting takes place among the tanks where this year's vintage is actively fermenting. You'll see the harvest and fermentation process up close and hear how each variety is being handled this season.

What you'll learn

How fresh grapes transform into wine, and how to identify the character each grape variety brings to the glass. A short, focused tasting for anyone curious about what actually happens between the vineyard and the bottle.

Peaches & Cava Rosé - Land Rover Harvest Experience - seasonal wine tour in Penedès
16 June – 10 July ~5 hours Penedès

Peaches & Cava Rosé - Land Rover Harvest Experience

€169 per person · minimum 3 guests

A short-season Land Rover experience through Penedès when the peaches are ripe: we drive into a local orchard to collect peaches from the trees, then pair them with a Cava Reserva Rosé made from Trepat, the local red grape that defines our pink sparkling wines.

For a few weeks each summer, Penedès smells of ripe peaches. Between mid-June and early July the orchards around the vineyards are at their peak - and this short-season Land Rover experience is built around that moment.

We drive through the vineyards in an open Land Rover, stop at a local peach orchard to pick fruit straight from the trees, and then sit down for a tasting that pairs the peaches with a Cava Reserva Rosé made from Trepat, the indigenous red grape behind our region's most distinctive pink sparkling wines.

Watch a short from the tour

Why Trepat matters

Trepat is a Penedès native - light-bodied, fresh, with red-fruit aromatics that sit beautifully against the sweetness and acidity of a ripe peach. Most Cava Rosé in the world is made from international grapes; this one is made from ours.

What the day looks like

Pickup in Barcelona, scenic drive into the Penedès countryside, a guided walk through the peach orchard with the grower, and a relaxed open-air tasting of Cava Reserva Rosé paired with the peaches we just picked. Everything is hosted personally - small group, slow pace, real contact with the producers.

Dates and pricing

Available 16 June to 10 July only · ~5 hours · €169 per person · minimum 3 guests. For groups of more than 4, get in touch for a tailored quote.

Optional add-on

Local peach market visit

Weekends only, until 15 August

On Saturdays and Sundays we can extend the day with a stop at the local peach market, where growers from across the area sell that morning's harvest. Available until 15 August - even after the main tour window closes, this can be combined with a winery visit as a weekend extension.

What's included

  • Private door-to-door transport from Barcelona
  • Land Rover ride through the vineyards
  • Guided visit to a local peach orchard with peach picking
  • Cava Reserva Rosé tasting (Trepat) paired with the peaches
  • Hosted personally by a local wine specialist
