A unique tour offers Roman themed Wine Tasting / Gourmet Lunch at the amfitheatro combined with historic sites; Wine Art & History! Autóctono grapes Mourvedre, Garnacha, Malvasia & Moscatel were historically important from Camp de Mourvedre & our glorious tasting represents these wines in various styles.
