3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

On this route you will be able to discover many curiosities about Torrevieja that you probably didn't know about, such as its vineyards, which were crucial in the 19th century after the filosera plague. All of this developed in an incredible environment such as the La Mata Natural Park.

Next, we will go to a tasting area where the sommelier will be waiting for us.

There, we will start with the tasting where we will taste 3 local wines, DO Alicante and, of course, we will try the authentic white wine from the vineyards of the La Mata Natural Park.

In addition, we will pair it with local products such as:

- two local homemade tapas.
- two premium extra virgin olive oils of the Arbequina and Picual varieties.
- two homemade cheeses awarded in 2021 and 2023 as the best cheeses in their category.

All products are from the region, organic and traditionally made.

What to expect

We will start with a brief historical explanation of the Natural Park and its unique vineyards.
Next, we will go on to see the centuries-old vineyards and explain the main characteristics that make it so special. We will continue walking through the spectacular Natural Park and make two brief stops: one to see the canal that connects the sea with the lagoon and another to spot the local birds such as the plover and flamingos.

Once we have finished the entire walk through the natural park to learn about these vineyards, we will walk until we reach the tasting area where the Sommelier will be waiting for us to do the tasting where we will try, among others, the authentic wine from the Natural Park of La Mata.

There, comfortably seated, we will do the tasting of 3 DO Alicante wines, one of them from the vineyards of the Natural Park and traditionally made.

In addition, we will pair it with:
- 2 premium extra virgin olive oils of the Arbequina and Picual varieties.
- 2 homemade and local tapas.
- 2 homemade cheeses from the area, both awarded in 2021 and 2023.
