Jaime's TEAM | about the guide

Madrid’s wine region has a centennial tradition and is coming up as a region of great wines . To learn about its history and reputation, follow a local professional guide on a unique full day tour.


Meet your private driver and wine expert guide at your Madrid hotel and settle into a comfortable vehicle while enjoying the ride. For about 45 minutes, you will drive down the most scenic roads lined with endless vineyards, while your guide tells you about the history of Madrid (Valle del Tajo). You will learn why this region has evolved to become one of the best kept secret among wine lovers and the secret of its old wines.

Once arrived, you will stop in 3 different family-owned wineries and cellars where you will be introduced to the “wines of the Kings of the Spanish Golden Age” (as per one of the winery called the Bodega real f Carlos III in Aranjuez). As you challenge your taste buds with the various wines, the owners will share their passion with you and tell you about their production techniques.

You won’t leave the region before indulging in the local gastronomy, so you will enjoy a delicious lunch in a restaurant before coming back to Madrid.

We can adapt the tour to any dietary restrictions, vegetarians, no beef, no porc, etc... Just let us know in advance.

Jaime

Madrid

languages :
Anglais/English, Espagnol/Spanish

Born and bred in Madrid from a family of aperitif-lovers who took him to every classic tavern in the city way before he had the age to taste wine or even reach the counter. Jaime developed a passion for wine over the years. As a journalist and food and wine lover, he always looked for different ways to bring people closer to wine, one way or another. Being a tour guide allows him today to fulfil his two main passions: wine and unleashing people into Madrid food scene! He is also a sommelier and a member of the Spanish Union of Wine Tasters. He has also collaborated in gastronomic radio programs. A little anecdote about Jaime: while photographing and writing about cultural heritage in the Department of Architecture of Madrid´s regional government, he got to know the centennial wineries in the countryside south of the city. He started up, then a wine distribution company, to bring those wines to the city taverns fighting again mainstream wines. Soon enough, he switched to bring people to drink them from their very source at the wineries or selected taverns that bet for local products. And there he is now.
