Monday Morning Photo - Plaza Grande de Zafra

Zafra was an absolute delight, Plaza Grande, which has two differente areas, walk through an arch - to another ancient plaza, this is the smaller of the two. So photogenic and a good time of day, about 5pm, to fiind them pretty empty, sadly we had to move on so didn´t see the open bar bustle of the evening.   Definitely would have planned to stay over or at least longer had I known just how charming it is, but it was the first stop on a whistlestop Extremadura with a pop into Portugal long weekend roadtrip.  See the Monday Morning Photo list.

Monday Morning Photo - Grape Vines in Cordoba

Having recently discovered yet another local winery to visit I couldn't resist, while passing the town, having a brief nose around. The bodega I knew wouldn't be open but the town Doña Mencia just over the Jaen border into Cordoba province is one I pass every time I head down to Malaga but had never visited. I will be going again, it´s charming and has more than one winery!

Some already harvested vines with the leaves beginning to change colour. This year with heatwave after heatwave the grapes ripened much earlier. Very much looking forward to visiting the winery and sampling some of their award-winning finos, this is the DO Montilla-Moriles area.
