After making an appointment the day before, we were received today by Noemi. A very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Actually we never had a winery visit like this, very personal, very informative and presented with passion and pride. Starting with a rosé, we went through the whole winery and tasted two probes from different barrels. Very interesting. Then we finished off with tasting a selection of three wines with a delicious pairing of Spanish dishes, in fact a complete lunch. When you are in the Ribera del Duero area, this is a “must visit”.

5.0 based on 2 reviews
Territorio Luthier is enjoying the world of wine in a family winery where we decided long ago that making wine was not the only important thing, but knowing how to enjoy it and transmit it to those who want to enjoy it with us. We do not harvest large quantities of grapes, nor are we bound by the elaboration of specific categories. Just as a luthier patiently creates a musical instrument that delights the senses for many years, we make aging wines that can also be enjoyed over time. Our winery is located in a quiet place surrounded by nature. On the sunniest days we can enjoy the terrace, where the friendly forest dwellers sometimes come to visit us; roe deer, hares or foxes. Other days we enjoy the wine inside the winery, in our cozy tasting room. Live this experience with us and get a good taste in your mouth on your visit to the Ribera del Duero.
Inclusions: Snacks, Wine tasting
Exclusions: Private transportation

This review is for the wine retail, NOT the cellar tour. We did go to the cellar tour and upon leaving asked about retail sales. They took me to a cellar behind a hidden door with a thumbprint reader to get in which was very cool. There were certainly some amazing wines in there and we wanted to have a few special bottles shipped home. We went with their recommendations but since we were on a tour of Ribera we had little time to research the recommended wines. My wife just said get it and let’s go. Something I will never do in the again. It turned out we were either overcharged or their prices are just outrageous. They charged me $390 for a 2012 Vina Sastre Pesus. Turns out I could get this for under $300 elsewhere in Spain and even in the U.S. Worse they charged me $280 for a 2011 Aalto Ps which avg mkt price is not even half. Luckily I swapped that one out for something with a fairer price. The other wines were also about 35% over avg market prices but thank goodness they weren’t nearly as expensive bottles. Just as bad as their pricing was their communication. Upon purchase they said they would send an email confirmation of the purchase with shipping details. A week went by without any confirmation so I send an email to their general mailbox to request an update as well as a call courtesy of our hotel’s conceirge and still no response for 2 more days. I was just about to attempt to cancel the order when they responded and since it was such a hassle already I just kept the order in place. With spending so much on high end wine, you would think their customer service would be on point and if they had reasonable prices, I’m sure they would have long term customers. Not sure how they remain in business but I will certainly not purchase from here again. For anyone looking for wine in Spain, definitely check out Vila Viniteca for not only a great selection, but great customer service and great prices.

Wonderful experience! Our tour guide for the day was a winemaker so it was great to be able to ask him questions about wine making in the area and to hear his personal experience. We visited 3 very different wineries, including one making natural wine at our request as this is something we were interested in. Delicious wines, beautiful scenery and and amazing lunch (with wine pairings!), we learnt a lot and had a really fantastic day!

My husband and I spent several days exploring the region with Jorge. He arranged visits to several vineyards so we could sample the different atmospheres of the wineries and the wines of the region. We learned a lot and had a really great time. Jorge is knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. He picked us up on time each day and created a great schedule with some flexibility for different options and choices. I would definitely recommend him and his company.
