Bene was an excellent guide as we toured 3 "off the beaten path" bodegas. She had a wonderful command of the history and sprinkled in humor throughout the tour. The food and drink were superb!

If you can ask for FELICIANO! His passion for the food/wine and Barcelona is infectious. He was so informative and clearly loves what he does. So fun and really appreciate that he went out out of the way to make sure I had something to taste at each stop even though I am a vegetarian. Very kind.
