Requena

"The Requena-Utiel region is the centre of local wine and cava production, and this is why most people visit. You can drive through the countryside and get lost among the vines, stopping in for a quick tasting at various local wineries, or there are some vineyards where you can take a tour and tasting in English, including Hoya de Cadenas. Utiel Requena is the local speciality, a red wine made from the Bobal grape. Don’t miss the town of Requena itself with its pretty Old Town and the Fiesta de Vendimia in late August, celebrating the end of the harvest and asking God for plenty of rain next year."
