Only twenty thousand people inhabit the small Gothic city of Requena, located 30 miles inland from Valencia at 2,300 feet above sea level. The economy of this region is based on the production of Cava sparkling and still wines. In the town, you'll see San Salvador Church, the castle's Tower of Homage, and the perfectly preserved cellars.
Explore the town of Requena and take a short walking tour through the narrow streets.
Visit the caves that have been put to many and varied uses throughout history — a refuge in times of war, silos for storing grain, and wine cellars for the production and storage of wine.
Today, you will visit one of the most important cellars in the area, with more than 100 years of production history behind it. Hoya de Cadenas is considered the largest winery in the Valencia region. Taste the wine and enjoy some light snacks. You'll have the opportunity to purchase a bottle of wine.
Notes:
