This is a lovely vineyard. I read the previous review and it looks like the son has taken over for…read morehis madre. He was a wonderful host for our group with Gourmet Madrid. I really don't understand why vineyards in this area are such a hidden gem given my love of tempranillo. They are more rustic than California vineyards. However, they will move you with their passion and joy for wine. We also had an amazing traditional potato/egg frittata with our wine tasting....I may have had 4 helpings lol. They offer shipping to USA. It was economical to Illinois....not so much for New England area but bueno for me :)

We visited this fab little winery during our tour with Gourmet Madrid (pls check my review of…read morethem). This vineyard is just outside of Madrid city and part of the Madrid DO (district of origin.....for wine labelling purposes). Madrid bas been producing wine for ages, but is not as well known outside of Spain. Anyways the vintner here is an absolute joy, she is 70-80 yrs old, part of a family that has been producing wines for 200 years or so, and still produces them in clay pots which is a rare sight. Her enthusiasm and passion are infectious. She was generous with her time and sharing delicious bottles, some which are not on the market yet. We picked up a few bottles. They say every bottle has a story, I never fully absorbed it till I connected with her. She epitomizes it. Definitely recommend a visit. But in Spain always phone/email vineyards days ahead of your visit.

This is a must see museum, but enjoyment might be a bit hampered by the crowds. In fact, there…read morewere so many people on a relatively slow winter Sunday, they had to stagger entrance and make us wait. The house is not actually El Greco's house, that was a misunderstanding, but it is a uniquely lovely structure for this art collection. You'll benefit from a prior trip to the Prado where there are excellent informational and educational posted notes. There are many important pieces here but my favorite is his depiction of Toledo.

Museo Del Greco's located in the Jewish Quarter of Toledo and is the home of El Greco. It contains…read morea significant amount of his art collection. You think it's a small exhibit, but once you get inside the museum, it's full of a ton of artwork and you can easily spend a chunk of time browsing through the history. I personally didn't take photos of the artwork only because it's scattered all over the internet as it is. I just spent the time wandering in the home. For 3 EUR, it's basically a no-brainer to visit. I enjoyed the courtyard area with all the flowers too. Just need to come here, relax, and enjoy the art.

Marzipan can also be used as a thin sheet over cakes. It can be glazed and topped with chocolate or fruit. So I had to try it due to it being incredible eye candy. Santo Tome has been around since the 1850s and this one was adjacent to a main square so it's quite popular for locals and turistas. I got a few and enjoyed eating them although they all tasted somewhat the same, but it was all good. So if you're in Toledo, Oh....I mean Spain, stop on in.

I think it's interesting that an ice cream place sprays alcohol on their food. Strangely, it works! I got pistachio with a spray of sweet wine. I forgot what my friend got, but she had a Jack Daniels spray. You can also get Tajin, mango and tequila spray. Overall, this was a nice sweet treat that I'll always remember. It's all natural and doesn't feel heavy at all!

We visited the other marzipan shops and found that the marzipan was more natural. Also they have a wide range of homemade chocolate. They have many different ice cream flavors as well and are so generous with the samples. They ran out of smaller sized gift boxes so they made some on the spot for us. They are so personal at Jacinta y Maria! You must visit if you are in Toledo. Don't miss it!!

It smells heavenly inside and the staff are very friendly. I had read on TripAdvisor that they have a very good pan con tomate, too, but sadly it's only available Friday-Sunday, so we didn't get to try it. What we did get to try were their croissants, chocolate-covered corazon pastries, and cafe con leche. Prices were reasonable and the corazons (recommended by the staff) were amazing - definitely wish I had ordered more of them now :')

For some one with no sweet tooth, this was not very sweet but again nothing mind blowing. They have a variety of chocolate truffles or marzapan varieties here. Good gifting options too. Conveniently located near the main zocodover in Toledo. They do let you buy a piece and you dont need to commit to 6-12 pieces upfront. Liked it.
