Summer at Arzuaga: what’s there to do at the weekend?

This post is also available in: Español (Spanish)

If there’s something that characterises our tourism offering and that makes us a unique spot in the heart of Ribera del Duero, it’s the versatility of what we offer. Arzuaga is the most complete wine tourism complex in the whole of Spain, which is why we can offer you a full weekend without even having to leave our facilities… It’s the perfect plan for this summer!

We’ll start on Saturday morning, after having rested and enjoyed the comfort of our hotel nestled among the vineyards. Our Mediterranean breakfast awaits you, the best way to start the day. After having breakfast and fuelling up, we suggest going on one of our tours. First, be amazed by our La Planta estate, a unique place where you’ll find our nature reserve with deer, wild boar and mouflons, and where you’ll also be able to admire our vineyards and get an energy boost by embracing our ancient holm oak. After strolling around La Planta, it’s time to explore the place where Arzuaga wines are made. To do this, you’ll be able to visit the different areas of the Bodegas Arzuaga winery, learn about the production processes we use and, after discovering where the wines come from, you’ll get to try them in a tasting where we’ll explain their characteristics and nuances to you. And if you’d like to find out even more about them, we recommend signing up for one of our wine tastings, where we’ll pair the various wines tasted with different tapas from the Taller Arzuaga restaurant and teach you to discover everything that’s hiding behind the wines we make.

After a full day of wine tourism activities, it’s time to check out the traditional cuisine of our region by enjoying a meal at the Arzuaga traditional restaurant. Roast suckling lamb, skewered suckling lamb, suckling wild boar, monkfish with clams and prawns in a pine nut sauce… All washed down with one of our Ribera del Duero red wines, of course!

After eating, it’s time to relax and unwind, and at Arzuaga, we have the best place to do this: our spa. You’ll be able to start by enjoying a thermal circuit set in the vineyards, admiring the sea of green that the vines turn into in summer. And to round off the experience, there’s nothing better than treating yourself to one of our treatments or massages. You’ll have your skin pampered and be able to relax in the best hands.

When night falls, at Arzuaga we’ve got the best plan for Saturday: our cinema Saturdays, a barbecue and classic films in our outdoor gardens. Sounds good, doesn’t it?

After a busy day full of activities, on Sunday, before checking out, we suggest something that will be new to many of you: the oils we make here at Arzuaga. The best way to discover them is through an oil tasting – we’re sure that you’ll be amazed!

And to round off such a special day, there’s nothing better than the haute cuisine dishes at our Michelin-starred restaurant, Taller Arzuaga. We recommend trying one of its new menus, where you’ll discover pioneering cooking that’s committed to local cuisine with high-quality produce.

What do you say to enjoying a different kind of weekend, full of activities and without even leaving Arzuaga? This is just one idea for things you can do at our wine tourism complex, but there are lots of other options: bike rides, picnics, rides in a horse-drawn carriage, live music… All that’s missing is you!
