Visit to Pireneos, Somontano's leading winery
The authenticity of Somontano lies in its inheritance of geographic and natural characteristics of unique beauty. The region is located at the foot of Pyrenees, and that is probably where its name "Somontano" (meaning "under the mountain") is originating from.
A visit to Barbastro, "wine capital" of the region whose history is projected on the walls of its wineries, can submerge us into the local lifestyle and delight us with all of its gastronomic and winemaking might. Standing before the most imposing mountain range of the Iberian Peninsula, we can appreciate the wineries and products of nature being as splendid, as they are unique. The vicinity to Benasque and Cerler, similarly to the natural parks of the Pyrenees and its medieval villages, render the region more enjoyable among its history and gastronomy.
