Bodegas HABLA is on the A-5 motorway, at the kilometre 259 exit, a few minutes by car from the centre of Trujillo. It opens to visits from Thursday to Sunday with three formats that differ in length, in what you eat and in the day. All are booked on its wine tourism page, with a date and time.

Habla Clásico: from the Sala Mira to the Hablateca

This is the short visit, an hour and a half, and the only one that also runs on Thursdays and Fridays. It starts upstairs, with the panoramic view from the Sala Mira, where they tell you the idea behind the winery. Then you go down to the production room, move on to the barrel room and finish in the Hablateca. The final tasting is of three of the house wines.

It costs €38 for adults and €20 for adults who do not drink and young people aged 10 to 17. Ages 4 to 9 are €6, and up to 3, free.

Habla Selección, at weekends at 12:30

It lasts two hours and adds to the interior a tour of the outside of the winery and of the production process. The tasting is also of three wines, but here with tapas prepared by the kitchen team. Only Saturdays and Sundays, at 12:30, so you come out at lunchtime.

Adults pay €60, adults without alcohol €50 and ages 3 to 17, €35, although the children's price includes neither drink nor tapa. Under-2s do not pay.

Habla Duende, a long table on Saturdays

This is the experience for a proper meal. The visit inside has no tasting and ends in a tasting menu with several courses, each with the wine proposed by the sommelier. There is a vegan option and a children's menu. It runs on Saturdays at 13:00, and in July and August moves to 20:00.

It costs from €130 for adults and €38 for children up to 12. When booking, a deposit of €50 per adult and €20 per child is left. It can be given as a voucher, valid for twelve months.

Cancellations, groups and the stud farm

The winery does not publish on its visits page the length of Habla Duende or the cancellation conditions: ask when you book, on 927 659 180 or 690 64 15 27. Turismo Trujillo, the guide company in the Plaza Mayor, also sells Habla Clásico with its own conditions: a minimum of six people and 100% charged if you cancel or change within the previous 72 hours. For groups there are tailor-made experiences, with tastings, presentations or a visit to its Pura Raza Española (purebred Spanish) horse stud, with a minimum number of people agreed with them. Always check the calendar of public holidays before you go.

After the visit, the gastrobar Espacio H serves the same wines at shop prices; its kitchen closes at 16:00. The afternoon ends well with the sunset visit to the castle, as the plan HABLA tasting and sunset at the castle suggests.

Tips

  • Decide beforehand who is driving The winery is next to the motorway, outside the old town: you get there and back by car. If you are going to taste, let someone who does not drink drive.
  • With small children, check the ages At Habla Clásico a child aged 4 to 9 pays €6; at Habla Selección, from age 3 they pay €35.
  • A two-in-one Saturday If you do Habla Selección on Saturday, you can stay to eat at Espacio H before the kitchen closes.
