Bodegas RE

Incredible experience and great wine! George was a great tour guide and they had unique, well balanced, types of wine. The tour included liquor tasting, see their balsamic vinegar storage room, and the wine cellar. 11/10 would tell anyone in Casablanca Valley this is a must visit.

Wonderful small vineyard that loves to host and make you feel comfortable and at home. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. The wine was decent for a blend, the fact that it was a 2013 bottle only helped. Everyone were extremely nice, accommodating and bilingual. Highly recommend to anyone in the area.

By far the most informative winery tour I have experienced. Macarena was a uniquely personable and knowledgeable hostess / guide / educator. In particular, I loved learning how their balsamic vinegar is made.

This was a really solid stop on our wine tour. Great wines and we also tasted two of the liquors.

Very informative wine tour. Learned a lot about the process of production. Felipe our guide was great! We loved the red wines. Would recommend!

We came to learn about wine creating process (and to taste it), and in the end it has all finished with a huge culinary discovery, making it the best food experience we in all of south America (for us) ! The wine tasting experience was OK... Our tour guide however (Macarena), was extremely well informed, spoke perfect English, was funny and made this experience a memorable one. Then we had a meal prepared by chef Pilar... This has made us forget all about the wine! Her cuisine was more than extraordinary in terms of flavour, composition of ingredients and mix of local and tradition food. I believe she should have a proper restaurant to run, and surely she will be recognised quickly by true connaisseurs of excellence and flavour! Thank you so much once again, you've made our visit a memorable one! PS. I'm a former French chef, so I know what I'm talking about 😉

Highly recommend this wine tasting and mini tour! This is one of my favorite tastings I’ve done and have done Napa, Mendoza, etc. We toured with Thomas who was superb — extremely knowledgeable and approachable. The pace of the tasting is perfect and we appreciated the short 15 minute tour which was a refreshing change of pace vs longer ones. We loved the Doble wine! Top notch experience. Don’t miss this one!

...........We were here because our son and his bride (our new daughter) had decided to host their wedding reception here! The itinerary and format of events to take place here as the bridal-couple choose it to be was wine-pairing, a tour of the winery with an in-sight as to how the process of wine-making unfolds then the three-course lunch also in the line of wine and food-pairing. It’s always reassuring when you arrive at a venue where the main-gate is manned it makes a statement as it was here. The grounds are very clean, neat-lii and pleasant-lii laid out gardening at the edges around the main-building and with some old worn out push wagons giving it a cool rustic look. We were met outside by our host a very pleasant and hip young lady (so sorry that I don’t remember her name) fluent in English who quick-lii explained the program then leading us through the main reception area of the Bodegas RE sells centre and shop down the stairs into the basement where the wine cellars are and incidental where the reception is to take place now. This was a total surprise especially for the bridal-couple as the original plan was to have the lunch in the restaurant on the wine-estate but that was changed as a larger group got the restaurant reserved for them. Our group was only a party of 16 people and as we descended the stairs an awesome sensational royal surprise greeted us ahead was a beautiful blackboard with a welcome note from the bride and groom and to the left was a nifty nook just big enough to accommodate our group and most beautiful-lii set-out. The cellar is very big with barrels packed up on the one side from floor to ceiling, we were taking into the back where there are large pear-shaped clay tanks and here they set up a table to be used as a lectern for the speeches and the toast. We were all served with a glass of Bodegas RE champagne a beef empanada, chicken on a skewer and also a very refreshing fruit-salad cocktail served in a glass-bowl. After the speeches they set-up a table with bread, olives, biltong and cheese and served us a white and also a red wine to pair with what was served on the table. The champagne and the wines we had were of a high standard and set very eas-ii on the palate. After this we were taken on the wine-making tour which was an absolute educational escapade. We learnt how the wine-makers on this estate being the owner and his son don’t follow the rules of how wine is made but experiment and try different processes to derive different taste and results using different kinds of wooden barrels. Even their liqueur making is very unique sometimes with the fruit inside the bottle. Once again our host was very competent and knowledgeable on all the processes and explained it most clear-lii. By now it was time for our late-lunch! There was fresh-lii baked bread served with olive oil, a prawn-cocktail as a starter and a glass of refreshing white-wine. The main-meal was very simple mashed potatoes and a thick piece of tender beef-side that had been pot-roasted in its own juices for several hours. Served with a glass of red wine. Very enjoyable! The dessert was a Cream-Brulee the most insidious-lii delicious Brulee that we have every tasted, extreme-lii cream-ii and the sugar coated crust was just hard enough for it to be pierced without much effort. This was also served with a white-wine. Our day and visit here ended when we all enjoyed a piece of wedding-cake and a cup of coffee. The staff that administered this whole affair here must be commended for their excellence! Our encounter with the staff of Bodegas Re and what we experienced here will be forever engraved indelible in our minds!..................
