Very nice visit to this historic vineyard

Had a very nice visit to F. Schatz. Was not actually aware of its history and the importance of it for the whole Ronda region. The quick tour to the vineyard was great and as their harvest is staggered, there were still some grapes of a few varieties to taste. The wine tasting was good with high-quality wines and some nice food. The other people our group were also great fun. The only downside was that it would have been great to do the tasting (or at least afterwards) in the very nice garden they have at the site.

Perfect visit

We really enjoyed our visit with Gema. The explanations were clear and very interesting. Really worth it!
