THE BIG: Oldest winery in North America! Founded in 1597 and still produces wines in the Parras valley of Northern Mexico. Giant estate with sprawling grape vines. Plenty of parking inside and the guard will check if you are on the list.
THE BLACK AND WHITE: First stop on our wine tour of Parras valley and we started off with a bang! We were here for the 10:30am tour that included a car ride of the estate, then we transitioned into a walking tour of the wine production area with gorgeous vines adoring every walkway.
Then we did our tasting of 3 wines with pairing. We had a chardonnay with goat cheese that was absolutely delicious! Then we had their merlot and then reserve malbec. The reserve malbec was great on its own, however the winner goes to the chardonnay and goat cheese pairing imo.
THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall a tasting was 1050 MXN. Pretty hefty but the ambiance of the tour and tasting the wines with charcuterie made it all the better. Highly recommend! read more
