★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 27 reviews · 1 to 2 hours (approx.) · from $66

At Jugo Vinos Vivos in central Cordoba, you taste an ancestral sparkling wine, a white, and a red alongside anchovies, local cheeses, olives, and toasted almonds. The host explains natural winemaking and offers useful tasting tips. The small-group session lasts about two hours and ends where it begins.

“Be aware this isnt a tour. This is a tasting of 3 natural wines in a shop. The heading doesnt say this. Natural wines taste quite different to other wines so be aware. The hostess obiously knew her stuff about the process that goes into creating these natural wines, but i found it underwhelming. The food, was a tin of anchovies some cheese and some meat. All in all not the best way to spend a couple of hours in a lovely city.”
