November 9 to 16 Cheese and wine route in Pilar de la Horadada!
Tour the cheeses and wines of Spain without moving from Pilar and La Torre!
A welcome variation to the typical “tapas route” is being held in Pilar de la Horadada from 9th to 16th November, with locals and visitors invited to enjoy the very best cheese and wine available both in Pilar and in La Torre.
The “Ruta Cata de Queso y Vino Españoles” is being supported by 11 bars and restaurants in the municipality, offering a carefully chosen selection of artisan cheeses paired with a range of Spanish wines to highlight the different tastes. Some of the cheeses come from other areas of Spain (including Galicia, Menorca, Ávila and Zamora) while the wines represent the diversity of production throughout Spain, and the result is a real festival for gastronomes as you travel throughout the country without leaving Pilar de la Horadada!
