ST. JOHN’S EVE: Bonfire Night
Saturday, June 20
The most meaningful and magical night of the year is approaching: the Night of San Juan!
​
On this special date, we celebrate the arrival of the Southern Hemisphere’s Winter Solstice, surrounded by myths and legends
​
The celebration will take place at the spectacular Bodega Familia Deicas, a winery full of history, and an elegant, welcoming setting with soul, ideal for such a special evening
​
We will enjoy a guided tour of the winery and take part in the traditional bonfire ritual, accompanied by live bagpipers, where we will welcome all the good wishes and positive energy we hope to attract into our lives
​
Afterwards, we will enjoy a unique gastronomic experience by Mechi Deicas in the historic Preludio Cellar, built in stone by the Jesuits in 1745 and declared a historical monument
