Bacchus himself would have felt right at home in Ribera del Duero, a region devoted entirely to the production of fantastic wines. Many different types of grapes are nurtured by the dozens of regional vineyards until they are harvested and the complicated storing and aging process begins. A number of charming little towns are scattered through the region, the main ones being Quintanilla de Onésimo, Peñafiel, Roa, Aranda de Duero, and San Esteban de Gormaz.
