About this experience
Private tour of the wine route where the Magic Town of Dolores Hidalgo will be visited. We will visit two exclusive vineyards in the region according to the contracted plan or it can be a single vineyard. ** The first is an exclusive and luxurious vineyard, where they make lavender and olive oil apart from wine. The second vineyard is private, where a little more will be explained about the process from the buds to the harvest, fermentation and bottling of the wines. In each vineyard we will have a different wine tasting in one with its cheese board and in the other with a 3 or 5 course menu (depending on the package chosen) accompanied by a glass of wine at each time. ** not included in all packages
