Interesting guided tour of the castle in Spanish with a leaflet in English and a small interactive time museum that if you are in the area is worth a visit. Great views from the castle.

we where looking for directions to castillo penafiel and couldn t understand the signs with WINE MUSEUM; after reaching the hill top we found out that the ship shaped castle had on the south side a very beautiful and well clearifying wine museum.
The tour through the castle is also a recommandation .

Make sure to know when they are open ; siësta closing times ............

Located inside the castle this museum tells of the history of wine not just in Spain but also its origins. However, all the information is in Spanish which is difficult to fully enjoy the attraction.

This is a very educative altough small museum inside Peñafiel castle, located in the Peñafiel town, it is worth visiting. I encourage you to do so.

The museum is accessed via the Castillo. It presents what it claims to be an interactive guide, but is wholly in Spanish. Given that it is for tourists, a growing number of whom will have English as a first or second language, it is surprising that no information is available in other than Spanish which I found difficult. There did appear to be information available via QR codes but if you don’t have your phone, or the app, then that’s of no use. Nonetheless, informative and well presented, although you’ll get much the same information on any one of the bodega tours available.

We stayed in this town for 5 nights as a base to explore the area, we used self-catering accommodation and used the supermarkets a lot, there are at least 3 in town and are all different in what they sell, and the whole experience so make sure you go to all three if staying local. The town is great to walk around loads of charm and history. The castle is amazing from a distance and up close we did not go inside because its controlled by wine drinkers and there is no freedom to enjoy this amazing monument. What a shame for castle lovers.

We were visiting many wineries, so this was a natural compliment to our trip. It is a modern, sleek museum with interesting artifacts and presentations, taking one from the earliest days of wine making to the present. It’s a handsome space within the old castle, and well worth a visit.

Fab reviews from the castle worth a visit. Tour is long if you have no Spanish.

Wine museum was fab. Download the app before arriving as the WiFi slow. Very informative museum using different mediums. Worth the effort of listening to the app if you can't speak Spanish. Enjoyec smelling the aromas with the help of Google translate!

The wine museum is located in the beautiful building of Peñafiel castle. It's worth a visit as the combined ticket with the castle is not very expensive, and you can spend time there before and after the castle visit, as it is guided tour only visit (it's well organised, as they make a call inside the museum to the meeting point 5 minutes prior to the start of the tour).

The museum itself is ok, very modern, with interactive panels and recreations, explaining about wine making, wine regions, and wine tasting, but there aren't information panels in other languages but Spanish. There is a screen where you can play videos about the wine regions in Castilla y León that it does offer subtitles in various languages.

The access is currently almost only by car, as there is not a nice walking path to go up the castle from the village; you can still walk by the road, as there is not much traffic but it would be nice to create a path.

Yes the museum is in the castle, so if you have kids they will like the castle while you can learn about wine.
