Wine is the most impressive thing that visitors will find out in Rueda and everyone can see the underground caves that were built there in the last centuries.

New and improved techniques were introduced later, but the majority of the wineries were closed in the 50s and 60s and the few that remained in the same place bought the undergorund caves to those people who sold their properties to the rest of the producers. Nowadays, visitors can see some endless galleries that are owned by two of the most important wineries in Rueda.
