Hotels and walks through vineyards
Pasear entre viñedos es sinónimo de salud, y ahora más que nunca también de seguridad. ¡Qué entorno más indicado para hacer una escapada! Y teniendo el Empordà a tocar, ¿qué más necesitáis para regalaros una merecida escapada de enoturismo?
Precisamente en diciembre de 2020 tres vinos de la Denominación de Origen Empordà fueron sido elegidos mejor vino de Cariñena blanca, vino de garnacha roja y mejor vino de garnacha blanca en la Guía de Vinos de Catalunya 2021.
Se trata, respectivamente, del Singulars de Vinyes Velles 2018, de la bodega Mas Llunes; Vinya del Metgeo 2019, de Celler d’en Guilla, y Istiu 2018, de Vinyes dels Aspres, que han obtenido las mejores puntuaciones de vinos ampurdaneses de la publicación.
Qué mejor momento, pues, para recorrer el Camino del Vino del Empordà, que dibuja un itinerario transversal del mar hacia la montaña, y ofrece de manera diáfana el poder de las viñas como paisaje dentro del paisaje, con vistas caprichosamente bañadas de sol y tramontana.
