El otoño es una época perfecta para conocer cómo se elaboran uno de los tesoros más preciados de la gastronomía española, este rico y variado producto que acompaña y marida con los mejores platos gastronómicos de Ávila.
Ávila tiene una larga tradición vitivinícola que abarca desde la Denominación de Origen Rueda a las famosas garnachas de la Denominación de Origen de Cebreros.
El mes de Noviembre se perfila como un mes estupendo para aprovechar el tiempo libre y realizar visitas a las bodegas para de esta forma sumergirse en el extraordinario mundo del vino.
Esta época es ideal ya que es la época en la que las viñas acaban de pasar por su tiempo de vendimia y las uvas esperan en los lagares para el procesado de las mismas para acabar convertidas en el preciado vino.
No es simple coincidencia que esta semana se celebre la semana europea del enoturismo, una actividad que cuenta con cada vez más aficionados a los que les gusta conocer de primera mano cómo se elaboran los productos que cada día llevan a su mesa.
Diferentes bodegas aprovechan esta celebración para organizar multitud de actividades enológicas que complementan las visitas a las bodegas que pueden realizar los turistas que se acercan a conocer el viñedo, la bodega y los procesos de prensado y maduración del mosto.
Ávila combines vines and mountains in a landscape of granite. For wine, it is worth looking to the Tiétar valley and to Cebreros, where high-altitude garnacha yields singular reds; there and in El Barraco or San Esteban del Valle there are country houses and charming lodgings among pine woods and gorges.
The walled city of Ávila offers hotels and inns within and beside the city wall, and there is a parador in the capital itself. The Sierra de Gredos, with Arenas de San Pedro or Hoyos del Espino, is an ideal base to unite mountains, garnacha and good food.
The chuletón de Ávila, from Avileña-breed beef, is the emblem of the province, accompanied by the beans of El Barco de Ávila with their protected designation. Roasts of lamb and suckling pig in wood-fired ovens call for a garnacha red from Cebreros, fresh and mineral thanks to the altitude.
The Tiétar valley provides figs, peppers and oil; the sierra, gorge trout and game. For dessert, the yemas de Santa Teresa reign, a convent legacy of Ávila, perfect with a glass of sweet wine or a coffee after the meal.
The Sierra de Gredos is the great draw: the Laguna Grande, the Circo de Gredos and the gorges of Chilla or the Pelaos offer hiking and mountain bathing. The Tiétar valley, with its microclimate, invites routes among chestnut trees, and the Cuevas del Águila near Arenas de San Pedro amaze underground.
The wall of Ávila, which can be walked along its parapet, and the villages of La Moraña complete the visit. The garnacha route through Cebreros and El Tiemblo, along with the Bulls of Guisando, unites prehistory, wine and granite landscape.
Ávila, a World Heritage city, boasts the best-preserved medieval wall in Europe and an old town full of Romanesque churches and palaces. The imprint of Saint Teresa of Jesus permeates convents, the Convent of the Saint and the Castilian mystical tradition.
The Bulls of Guisando, Vetton sculptures near El Tiemblo, and the Celtic hillforts speak of a remote past. The fortress cathedral, the Basilica of San Vicente and the convent yemas weave a culture of stone, faith and good food very much of Ávila.
The Sierra de Gredos concentrates the outdoors of Ávila, with campsites and motorhome areas in Hoyos del Espino, Navarredonda or the surroundings of the Plataforma, the starting point towards the Laguna Grande. The pine woods and gorges offer shade and cool water in high summer.
The Tiétar valley, in the south, offers pools and chestnut groves near Arenas de San Pedro and La Adrada, ideal for camping. Travelling by motorhome around the Burguillo reservoir and El Tiemblo unites granite nature, garnacha vineyards and the Bulls of Guisando.
