This particular bodega has a small (four room) hotel in it and we stayed there for the night while exploring the city. On the night in question, we were the only people staying at the hotel so they gave us a key to our room as well as to the door (it is not staffed at night) and we basically had free reign. Our room was very comfortable. Our full size bed was actually two twin beds pushed together, but that wasn't a big deal. The bathroom was stocked with soft, full size towels and had a rather technologically advanced shower. We also had access to the upstairs lounge with lots of comfortable couches, a large TV, and a full kitchen. The fridge was stocked with water and food and there was a separate wine fridge with all the Felix Sanz wine we could drink (which was one and a half bottles). The next morning, a lady came by to cook us a large, delicious breakfast before we departed for San Sebastian. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to tour the winery. I think it would have been pretty awesome. If you're interested in verdejo wine and looking to stay in the city of Rueda, this is probably your best bet (super luxurious for 70 euros a night!)

I am usually leery of restaurants on tours, but as soon as I saw how packed this place was at 2:00 and how we were the only tourists in the building, I knew we were in for a treat. My wife, brother in law, and I sampled a few varieties of meat centric tapas at this Castilian restaurant. They specialize in roast meats here, and both the roast lamb leg and grilled lamb chops were excellently seasoned and succulent. Other highlights of the meal included the housemade morcilla and the mushrooms with foie gras and fried eggs. For those who want to eat slightly lighter, we too appreciated the ventresca tuna belly with anchovies and roasted marinated peppers. We did not imbibe, but the restaurant serves multiple wines by the glass from the associated winery. The ambiance here is old school tapas bar with legs of ham hanging from the ceiling, a perpetually busy bar, and dark wood furnishings. Additionally, the basement of the restaurant houses an authentic wine cave and museum which demonstrates the old way of making and storing wine. Wear comfortable shoes if you plan on exploring the cave, as the steep steps can be slippery. While far from the lightest meal we had in Spain, this restaurant offered memorable meat dishes and a delightfully old world, local ambiance. If you are in the area, you could do far worse for a meal.

If you like sherry, this is your place. It was packed with people around 9 pm on a Friday night…read more We bellied up to the bar, and asked the bartender what was good. He asked whether we liked soft or strong. We said strong (of course!) and ordered two glasses of the Amontillado (like in the Poe story, but not!). It was promptly delivered with a small complimentary bowl of green olives. We also ordered two of the anchovy on toast tapas (one of the best things I've had in Madrid so far), and a chorizo tapa with small crackers. Of course, we had to order another Amontillado to wash it down. All of this set us back only 16.60 euros, which is about the cost of one glass of wine back home in West LA. Not bad. Then it was off in search of garlic shrimp! This is a great little bar, and we plan to visit it again before we leave the city.
