DYI Codorniu Wine Cellar - need advice

[tiggrbaby]

I would really like to visit Codorniu but I am not interested in booking a bus tour. I know I can take a train from Barcelona, but how would I get there from the station? Is there anything else to see in the town while I am there?

 

Thanks in advance!

You can walk (1.5 mi) or take a taxi at the station.

 

The town of Sant Sadurní d'Anòia has several wine producers, Codorniú being only one of them. Another one, equally big and famous is Freixenet -which premises are right in the centre of the town. Both producers, one established in 1551 and the other in 1860, are two of the biggest wine and cava producers in the world, with estates not only here in Catalonia, but also in Navarra (Spain), South Africa, South America and California among other. But in Sant Sadurní d'Anòia there are over eighty (80!) local Cava wineries -albeit much smaller. But it's not only Sant Sadurní, Catalonia is a wine producing nation and has 10 Wine Appellation regions. The one this town is located is called Penedès, where literally dozens of towns have wineries. More info: Enoturisme Penedès

 

I personally advise DIY tours... it's easy enough and it's more rewarding.
