Cooking & Wine in the Empordà region

Because we want to combine both the experience of a day at an authentic Spanish winery with a gourmet cooking class (meanwhile tasting some delicious Spanish wines!) then we are excited to bring you the news that one of our favorite chefs at Gourmand Breaks is now offering cooking lessons from a fabulous bright kitchen overlooking the vineyards of one the most fantastic wineries in the area.

La Vinyeta is a small vineyard and olive farm nestled  into  the heart of the Empordà region, in Mollet de Peralada. Not only do they produce fantastic wine but also local olive oil and even fresh eggs. They are a young winery, only releasing their first wine in 2007 but by 2008 their wines were already winning multiple awards. The vineyard’s owner, Josep Serra is a man who has turned passion into a small family business – with a contagious enthusiasm for doing what he loves.

 

Start the day surrounded by vineyards learning about the art of wine making and enjoying a private tour of the winery- lunchtime here is spent with chef Jordi, learning how to cook local Catalan cuisine accompanied (of course) by a glass of wine.
