Description
Embark on a scenic day trip from Barcelona to discover the beauty of Mount Montserrat and indulge in a premium Cava wine tour in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia. Enjoy the convenience of an air-conditioned van, a comfortable ride, and expert guide as you visit one of Catalonia's most iconic landmarks and explore the heart of Spain’s sparkling wine production region. Start your day with a drive from Barcelona towards the Catalan Pre-Coastal Range, where you’ll arrive at Montserrat Monastery. Nestled on a strikingly shaped rock formation that rises 2,380 feet above sea level, this Benedictine abbey is world-renowned for its shrine to the Virgin of Montserrat, also known as the Black Madonna. As you approach the monastery, take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding Montserrat Natural Park, a protected landscape known for its dramatic rock formations, unique flora, and wildlife. Your guide will lead you through the monastery, where you’ll have the chance to admire the stunning architecture and learn about the history of this sacred site, which has attracted pilgrims for centuries. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Santa Cova (Holy Grotto), a pilgrimage site where, according to legend, the Virgin appeared to shepherd children in a vision. The tranquil surroundings and spiritual atmosphere will leave you in awe. After exploring Montserrat, your next stop is Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, located in the heart of Catalonia’s cava-producing region. This charming town is home to a tradition of sparkling wine production that dates back almost five centuries. Visit a premium cava winery to learn about the process of crafting sparkling wines using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations. Descend into the cellars, where cavas are stored for several years to develop their signature taste. You’ll enjoy a guided wine tour, where you’ll learn about the production process, and the history of the cava industry. The highlight of your visit will be the wine and cava tasting experience, where you’ll sample three varieties of local cavas, each paired with delicious traditional tapas. As you sip wine and savor tapas, you’ll be treated to stunning views of the Catalan countryside and the majestic Montserrat Mountain in the distance. The winery, a family business since 1872, produces cava using locally grown Penedès grapes, making it a true reflection of the region’s winemaking heritage. After your unforgettable experience, you’ll be dropped off back at your hotel in Barcelona, filled with memories of Montserrat’s natural beauty and the rich flavors of Catalonia’s sparkling wine.Includes
