Make The Most Of The 2011 Wines With Spain Holidays
The most common features of great Spain holidays are inviting blue seas and relaxing beaches. However, the country is also home to some of Europe’s most impressive vineyards. Whether you’re exploring Barcelona or roaming more rugged areas on Costa Brava holidays, if you’re partial to a glass of wine or two then perhaps you should visit a vineyard and learn about Spain’s wine harvest!
The great thing about Spain is that you can find really cheap holidays here, with lots of flights leaving from London and Manchester on a daily basis. Those looking for cheap holidays in Spain should check out the Rioja region as this is where the best value for money holidays can be discovered. You’ll be pleased to know that this region is home to an astonishing 500 five hundred wineries – probably just enough to keep you occupied for a week or two of touring . With seven major rivers passing through, the ground is incredibly fertile which not only makes for a good bottle of wine, but also ensures that there will be a good supply of fresh fruits and vegetables to accompany your choice of wine.
If your search for cheap holidays has taken you as far as Costa Brava, then you must not miss the vineyards of DO Empordà-Costa Brava. This is such a great idea as many of the wines are not yet on sale in the UK. Over the 3,000 hectares of land you will find both international and local varieties of grapes which each year, are turned into wines of a very high quality. So, be sure to jam pack your Spain holidays with a proper tour of the area, tasting the various wines as you please.
You’d be amazed at just how fun can be had in Spain, even if wine tasting isn’t your cup of tea. Check out Spain’s tourist board for loads of great ideas, it’s a place that you can bring the kids year and year.
