Wine tours in Nieva
Pure satisfaction.
Free time, time to experience wine.
Segovia province has a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) for white wine called "PDO Wine from the Land of Castilla y León - Nieva Subzone," which is located in the Segovian region known as "Tierra de Pinares."
This PDO is characterized by the production of high-quality white wines, primarily from the Verdejo grape variety. Wines from the PDO Wine from the Land of Castilla y León - Nieva Subzone are known for their freshness, acidity, as well as their aroma of fruits and flowers.
Some notable wineries in the area include Bodegas y Viñedos Gómez Cruzado, Bodegas Marqués de Riscal, and Bodegas Nieva. These wineries offer guided tours and tastings of their wines, allowing you to learn more about the wine production of the region and sample their delicious white wines.
Without a doubt, if you're a wine lover, I recommend trying the wines from the PDO Wine from the Land of Castilla y León - Nieva Subzone during your visit to Segovia.
