Setting expectations is KEY! We arrived at 14:45 to have our first talk to a waiter at 15:30, ordered food and then the waiter came back that kitchen is closed and due to busy day they are out of stock!

Read moreThere's a short self guided tour, it's a very nice bulding. For tasting you have 3 options of which only 1 makes sense. The cheapest at 350 probably no one takes since for 550 you can already taste one Gran Reserva wine. The most expensive makes the least sense at 2300 for 3 wines. One of them is the same Gran Reserva, which by simple math works out to about 300, so that would mean that the other two wines would have to be 1000 each for a tasting glass which I found somewhat hard to believe. I guess it's designed for people who just want to...
