Description of Bodega:
Cap de Barbaria Petit Hotel stands in a wine-producing estate. Consequently, we wanted to create a small unique vineyard in 1999 that produces the best quality of wine possible from the Cap de Barbaria terroir. The hotel and restaurant were originally a grand estate fromt he 1600s that was restored into both a quaint exclusive hotel and a restaurant renown for its French Mediterranean cuisine. If you would be interested in visiting our cellar, participating in wine tastings or familiarize yourself with winemaking techniques, we invite you to contact us.
