Interpretation Center of the Wine

In the heart of the province of León, about 20 kilometers from the capital, is the municipality of Valdevimbre, a town of about a thousand inhabitants that has managed to maintain its winemaking tradition. Over the centuries, hundreds of cellar-caves have been excavated in its valleys, whose interior still provokes fascination, freshness and mysticism, as its smell and temperature evade us to a previous world. The Valdevimbre Wine Museum is located in one of those old wineries, which shows us what these caves were like in the past and allows us to learn about the traditional wine-making process.

The Valdevimbre Wine Museum offers a visit that begins with a video-documentary in which it visualizes the region's rich winemaking tradition and the main characteristics of its wines yesterday and today. This is followed by a guided tour of the winery through seven rooms in which, while the cave itself is shown, the development of the traditional wine-making process is explained: from the reception of the clusters to the the fermentation of the must, going through its pressing in a Roman beam.
