TRADITIONAL SPANISH LUNCH IN A WINERY or LOCAL RESTAURANT

Savor the Flavors of Rioja in a Picturesque Setting

If any of the wineries, selected for this tour, can provide lunch on that day, you’ll enjoy a traditional Riojan-style Hot & Cold tapas-based meal (featuring cheese, charcuterie etc.) paired with local wines, served in the outdoor garden nestled among the vineyards — weather permitting. This is a unique opportunity to savor authentic Riojan cuisine in a charming, rustic setting surrounded by nature.

Should the winery not offer lunch, we will head to a nearby traditional restaurant, where you will indulge in a full three-course meal paired with local wines, ensuring an equally delightful and authentic culinary experience.

DISCOVER THE MEDIEVAL VILLAGES OF RIOJA

Step Back in Time Amidst Vineyards and Stone Walls

Depending on the location of the final winery visited during the tour, we will explore one of the many charming medieval villages that Rioja has to offer. To ensure a smooth and efficient route, minimizing driving time, the village chosen will be one that makes the most geographical sense — typically Laguardia, Briones, or Labastida. Capture external views and photo opportunities of iconic architecture wineries such as Marques del Riscal and Ysios.

Each village offers its own unique charm:
  • Wander through narrow cobbled streets lined with historic stone houses.
  • Admire impressive 13th-century walls and centuries-old churches.
  • Learn about the deep-rooted connection between these villages and the wine industry, including the fascinating network of subterranean cave-wine cellars that still exist today
