This [below] just arrived in my inbox. Having visited many wineries in Cava country last fall for the Cava Meeting for trade professionals, I was deeply impressed with the makers, the landscape, the food and the culture. One of my first steps after the that press trip and one to Jumilla/Murcia last summer, was to call Markus to get more ground truths about these regions. Now you don't have to be member of the press to get insights - you can go with a native of Penedes.
Here is the advertisement for tours the Bokisch family is leading.
Join Markus & Liz for an unforgettable Wine Club Members-only journey beyond Barcelona—where every vineyard, village and shared meal tells part of their family's story.
For eight unforgettable days, Markus and Liz will personally guide you beyond the tourist routes into the vineyards, coastal villages, family traditions and hidden corners of Catalunya that inspired Bokisch Vineyards from the very beginning.
You'll walk through historic castles, sip Cava where Markus and Liz once lived, enjoy private winery visits unavailable to the public, dine with award-winning chefs, and spend your evenings along the Mediterranean surrounded by new friends who share your love of wine, food and travel.
This isn't simply a wine tour.
It's Spain through the Bokisch family's eyes.
With only a handful of spaces remaining for our 2027 departures, we invite our Wine Club members to join us for what many guests describe as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Each day of the tour has been thoughtfully curated to balance unforgettable experiences with authentic moments.
Explore the birthplace of Spanish Cava in Penedès before traveling south to Terra Alta and Priorat, two of Spain's most celebrated wine regions. Wander medieval villages, discover centuries-old monasteries, enjoy Michelin-starred dining, taste wines alongside the winemakers who craft them, and experience Mediterranean life from your home base in beautiful La Ràpita.
The difference isn't just where you'll go. It's who you'll experience it with.
Markus grew up spending summers in Catalunya, and throughout the week he'll introduce you to the places where his family lived, celebrated and built lifelong friendships. You'll visit the monastery where his parents were married, stroll through villages where generations of his family still live, and gather for a farewell dinner at Lo Xalet—his grandparents' summer home overlooking the Mediterranean.
Together, Markus and Liz have spent decades building relationships with winemakers, chefs and local families throughout Spain, opening doors that simply aren't available to the average traveler.
These aren't stops on an itinerary. They're personal introductions.
