We went out of season, so there was not a tourist in sight neither in the surrounding villages nor…read moreat the winery. It was well worth it, as we received a very detailed tour from Alicia in English (my wife's Spanish lacks understanding of technicalities like winemaking processes) and had the tasting room all to ourselves with brief visits from one of the owners, Don Javier and the friendly waitress. Be sure to "splurge" on the 25-euro "wine, tapas and tour" option. By far the best food offering of all the wineries we toured. The Malleolus is their reserve version - make sure you try it. We purchased their high-end Valderramiro line which we are excited to open at back home in the States. Their Emilio Moro line is a nice wine that, for the domestic price, is a good everyday drinking option. Book your tours on their website in advance, especially if you need English guides.

Very didactive, and enjoyable experience. Then we were hosted to an excellent menu where we tried four different types of wines. All of them excellent, and even better after the corresponding explanations. Overall a great experience that I would highly recommend to any wine enthusiast. Good luck!

This is a family, boutique bodega. The wines are Tempranillo and very good. I would recommend visiting this bodega.

Wonderful family owned Bodega. What a treat versus the monster wineries. Highly recommend.read more

We visited during the very slow season, so did not see lush vineyards. But even with dry vines, the…read morelocation of Legaris is stunning, with mountains and castles in the distance. The contemporary architecture makes it a standout in a region with mostly traditional-looking "bodegas." It was explained that the building was designed so that windows and terraces looked out onto particular features of the landscape - the architect was successful in this endeavor. There were only 2 of us during the entire visit, which was fine by us. Either way, the facility is on the smaller side which allows for the tour to be just right in length. Our guide, Belén, was knowledgeable - also warmly talkative in the typical Madrilenean style (though this is Castile, we learned she hails from the capital). You must book in advance especially during peak season, and make sure you are explicit about language preference. I wish the U.S. had a much larger duty-free allowance for booze. Legaris's "roble," or young red, was among the best everyday bottles I've tasted at a winery, and at around 6 euros, I'd have taken enough home to last us a year's worth of family dinners. The standout was the Calmo label, which is a superb wine. Belén nailed it when she said it was great for those looking for alcohol to sip that wasn't an actual spirit. I'd have taken more home, but we don't have great wine storage. Their verdejo (white wine) was quite nice as well. Legaris a young winery, and it seems they are looking to experiment in the next couple of years with special editions. I'm looking forward to it. SPECIAL NOTE: Spain's wine regions are experiencing the worst weather conditions in decades as of this review, as are other parts of Europe. Wine production will likely fall, so enjoy whatever you can get your hands on in the next couple of years. Also, keep Mother Earth in mind in all your activities as they have attributed this weather catastrophe to climate change.

At 75 EUR per person for the "smaller" menu (trust me, it is not small) in such a beautiful restaurant, this is a steal. The wine, for its quality, is very reasonably priced. Definitely Michelin quality food, and the reason they don't have a star is likely due to the service (not that the service is bad at all, it's just not Michelin quality - your water glass is often empty, crumbs on table are not cleared between courses, no one spoke English to explain the dishes to us, etc). Each course had a unique use of ingredients and flavors. Truly special experience!

On the agreed day we arrived and was greeted by Lorena, she took us for a drive through the different vineyards they own, then back to the winery where she explained the whole process from A-to-Z, then set up a table outside overlooking the entrance and some vineyards. I was very impressed by the high quality of the wines and the affordable prices, also not charging for tastings is extremely rare these days (in United States comes to mind Paloma Vineyard in Spring Mountain, Napa). My overall experience exceeded expectation, we literally ran out of time (3+ hours) since we had another winery to visit.

They do have a white and a rosé which are very good but I would say that their refs are what they are most recognized for internationally.
