Museum

The winery is also a museum of wine making. The walls are decorated with friezes of specially commissioned, hand painted tiles that illustrate every stage of wine production from earliest times to the present day. The museum also has numerous displays of tools and equipment, containers, books, and posters all devoted to wine making ancient and modern.

Similarly, wall friezes of hand painted tiles graphically explain the olive pressing process. One wall is covered with tiles that depict and name all the wild flowers found at the Alqueria – both beautiful and instructive. The tiles were made at oneof the last still functioning  tile factories in the Albaicin in Granada where the resident artist painstakingly copied by hand  from photographs taken at the Alqueria.
