Introduction:
Costa Brava Wine Tasting and The Jewish Heritage of Girona
If you are in Barcelona we suggest you discover one of the richest culinary regions in Catalonia ,the Baix Emporda, an area between the foothills of the Pyrénées and the Costa Brava, and then a visit to Gerona, unknown to many tourists and a great surprise for the visitor.

You will discover first the best Spanish wines and Specialty Foods at a Gourmet Shop in Palafrugell, heart of the Costa Brava. The tasting will be conducted by an expert at Can Serra. This gourmet shop is a century-old delicatessen , wine and cheese shop. Now in its fourth generation at the shop, the Serra family focuses on artisan products with a fine collection of Spanish cheeses, especially farmstead cheeses, the best Iberico hams, from the Iberian black pigs. There, you will enjoy surprising pairings.

After the tasting you will go on a short visit to the most beautiful beaches of the Costa Brava near Palafrufell and from there you will be transferred to Girona. This is a beautiful medieval town, North of Barcelona, with an impressive cultural heritage and a magnificent and well preserved medieval historical center.
