Activity - Exploring, Filming, Documenting the winery, El Hilo de Ariadna, of the denomination of origin Rueda
Ariadne (/ˌæriˈædni/; Greek: Ἀριάδνη; Latin: Ariadne) was a Cretan princess in Greek mythology. She was mostly associated with mazes and labyrinths because of her involvement in the myths of the Minotaur and Theseus. The ancient Roman author Hyginus identified Ariadne as the Roman Libera/Proserpina at approximately the same time as Libera was officially identified with Proserpina in 205 BC, these two names becoming synonymous for the same goddess. Hyginus equated Libera/Proserpina with Ariadne as bride to Liber whose Greek equivalent was Dionysus, the husband of Ariadne.

El Hilo de Ariadna
In the Valladolid town of Rueda, the cradle of Castilian white wine, Verdejo, the unique and labyrinthine underground cellars of the Yllera Group stand out.
In this winery, wine, art, mythology, history and culture come together to make way for a visit of sensations and senses.
Inside an impressive cave, 20 meters deep and for just over a kilometer, its wines rest in several rooms that make up an intricate labyrinth.
The Yllera Group has rescued from the abandonment different wineries in this area, creating an original and interesting route in which to discover the history and origin of the wine. In his eagerness to offer visitors new experiences, he wanted to link his wines with different episodes of the myth of the Minotaur.
Unrolling "the Ariadne thread", we will get to know more closely the characteristics and excellence of the Yllera Group wines: sparkling wines, Rueda whites, young reds, barrel and bottle aging, reserves and the jewel of the winery: the Yllera Dominus.
