Tour of the Codorníu Bodegas
Visiting the Codorníu wine cellars is to submerge oneself in the history of cava, the
history of a culture, of values and of people. In all of these elements, we find
architecture, history, tradition and innovation and a job well done, aspects which
make Codorníu a place filled with magical sensations, dreams and tales of endurance
and trust. www.codorniu.com
First Activity:
45-minute tour of the wine cellars in a miniature train.
Second Activity:
Meet in the Capitular room and tasting session of 3 different cavas. Approximate duration of 35-40 minutes.
Following this, lunch will be served.
* Includes transport to the Cellars. For all those who would like to use this service, the bus will depart from IESE (Av. Pearson, 21) at
10:00.
The MNAC embraces all the arts (sculpture, painting, objets d'art, drawing,
engraving, posters, photography and coinage) and has the task of explaining the
general history of Catalan art from the Romanesque period to the mid-twentieth
century. With this visit, we hope you will discover the principal museum spaces that
are available to residents and visitors and enjoy the beauty of this regional
landmark. www.mnac.cat
