Wine Tasting & Stunning Gourmet Lunch at Bodegas Bentomiz

An Astonishing Backdrop

Set amidst a rugged landscape and steep vineyards, Bodegas Bentomiz sits nestled between the imposing Sierra Tejeda mountains to the north and the serene Mediterranean Sea to the south. This unique geographical positioning provides not only the perfect conditions for viticulture but also a breathtaking setting in which to savour a leisurely afternoon glass of their finest wine.

A Fusion of Methods

At Bodegas Bentomiz, they have adopted a blend of modern and traditional vinification techniques, a combination that has proven to be most effective. Their pursuit of achieving the perfect equilibrium of sweetness and acidity leads them to sun-dry their harvested grapes. They either lay the bunches on local ‘paseros’ (raisin-beds) or on their own innovative floating racks, which allow air to circulate around the fruit.

During the sun-drying process, their forecourt becomes a vast expanse of grapes, giving the impression of a bodega adrift in a sea of fruit. The wines are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, with some aged in oak barrels and others ‘on the lees’ in stainless-steel tanks.
