Explore a rustic winery in Rioja

Let's explore the underground...
Singular, Rustic & Medieval
You will visit a very authentic and rustic winery learning their winemaking process but more their way and creativity making wines.

You will walk the underground of a medieval and rustic winery, sneaking through numerous 15th century caves feeling deeply a tremendous connection with the land and the terroir.

You will immediately connect with the place and the wine will give sense to everything you are told and given, in harmony with the person who takes care of it and the vines.

Besides feeling the land completely, we will visit one of the ancient ruins that lie in the surroundings, shapes and carvings in the stone used to make wine more than a thousand years ago. Just stunning.

During the 2 hours visit you will enjoy 3-4 of their best wines. After this unique visit we will enjoy more wine going to another 2 wonderful wineries and tasting their great wines.
Passion for wine
You are not only visiting wine bars, you will meet the local proud experts, the grower or winemaker and you will see that sparkle in their eyes that betrays the passion and magic that makes them enjoy every moment of their… lifestyle.
