A family winery in Matola, in the Camp d'Elx, with biodynamic viticulture and visits with a tasting of four or five wines, Monday to Saturday by booking.

Bodegas Faelo is a family winery in Matola, a hamlet of the Campo de Elche, with more than a hundred years of vine-growing tradition. It is run by the fourth generation. Grandfather Rafael, "Faelo", began treading grapes in 1930 in the family's afollaor (treading trough); until 2000 the wine was sold in bulk and had never been bottled at the Casa-Bodega. Today it makes Camp d'Elx wines within the Alicante D.O.P., in a traditional country house.

## How it makes its wine

It works its own land with biodynamic viticulture and ferments only with native yeasts, in 4,000-litre temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The best wine goes through new barrels before being bottled at the winery. Each vintage comes out in a limited number of numbered bottles. In the first half of September it holds the Festa de la Verema (grape harvest festival), with grape treading for children and adults; the date is announced on its website.

## The visits

There are two. The tasting visit lasts about an hour and a half, goes round the grandfather's cellar, the pressing house, the vineyard, the fermentation room and the barrel room, and ends with four wines (white, rosé, red and sweet) and a plate of snacks: €20. The tapas-and-wine experience lasts about two hours, with five wines, canapés, a hot meat pie and fig, date and apricot bread: €28. For children there is a €12 menu, and gluten-free, lactose-free and vegetarian menus.
