I'm looking for wineries that we can visit and or take a rest day and visit, while we are walking the Camino Frances. Or if anyone has a favorite wine they had and where they drank it while on the Camino?

See this earlier Forum thread re vineyards and wineries along the camino. Happy sipping and Buen camino!

Ah, "con pan y vino andamos el camino"

Villafranca del Bierzo - walked through there the Sunday after the grape harvest festival in 2003 - a fountain was still gushing wine and there was literally wine running down the gutters - SUCH a waste!

Bodega Tandem near Lorca on the CF. Literally on the Camino Frances.
Have not tried any of their wine, but when I walked the CF in 2014 met one of the owners as I was walking past. Gracious, friendly guy. Spoke with myself and a Dutch pilgrim for several minutes about the Camino.
