Enrique Mendoza winery is considered one of the better wines in the Alicante Region. Each year they have a weekend where you can buy a ticket and tour the inner sanctum of the winery. We decided to go with some friends and take part in the event. We bought out tickets which were expensive and limited to 250 per day and set out for a day of wine adventure.

The day began early because of the distance we needed to travel using the transit systems. We were at the Tram station at 6:30 am waiting for the tram.

We took the tram to Benidorm where we disembarked and then took a train to the town of Alfàs Del Pi. This small town is located at the foot of the Serra Gelada mountain. We began our walk up the mountain to the winery.

We continued walking our way up the mountain towards the winery. The views and scenery were beautiful so we stopped to take a selfie and enjoy the moment.

We continued up the mountain and finally came to the winery.

The main entrance was lined up with people getting into the winery. We joined the queue and waited our turn to enter the winery. Once we entered the winery we explored the grounds for a while.

We decided to go and take part is some of the wine education sessions.

We learned about the different aspects of wine making and the different grapes, soil, temperature etc. There was even an area set up to smell the different aromas of wine. 

After the wine class, we decided to take a break and enjoy a glass of wine and a cheese tray.

We enjoyed the food and wine throughout the day. The weather was beautiful and we had a great time with our friends.

After sampling different wines and enjoying some food we headed back home. It was a long day but a very enjoyable time.

“Adios y que tenga un gran dia”
