Immerse yourself in the Rioja terroir, taking a flavorful journey from traditional Rioja wines to modern innovational trends. This journey, brimming with varying hues and vineyards, would span across an entire day.

OUR EXPERIENCE STANDS OUT because we focus on connecting you with the ‘terroir’ - the unassuming individuals who are fervent about their craft. Our tour includes an array of wineries, ranging from vintage ones possessing medieval cellars to ones that are more modern and chic.

You are not merely visiting waitstaff at a wine bar, but rather connecting with the locals, the cultivators or the winemakers. You will witness the gleam in their eyes that reveals their passion and enchantment that makes them appreciate every bit of their work.

The wine aging process has undergone a dramatic shift (akin to stepping back in time), and presently wine is aged not just in oak, stainless steel or concrete barrels. Accompanied by your expert guide, you will have the opportunity to purchase further wines aged in clay, ceramic, or cement eggs.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
