What a treat this was! We had so much fun at the winery it was more than I expected. We were treated to a tasting of several varieties of wine, in addition to making a delicious salad and paella. We also had a bonus risotto, as someone on our visit was vegetarian. We left full, tipsy, and very happy! I would recommend this again for sure!

This was a really fun class. Everyone in the group was in a good mood, probably because the food and views were so good. Teacher was great and local.
