Alella

The Alella wine region is twelve minutes from Barcelona by helicopter. Most people have never heard of it. Those who have don’t talk about it much. You land in the heart of one of Catalonia’s smallest and most prestigious D.O. appellations. A winery tour, awards for white wines and cavas, and a few lunches. The option to sail back as the afternoon light begins to fade. Some places are worth the altitude.
