About this excursion

Experience a day of exquisite wine tourism on a private Rioja tour blending centuries-old La Rioja, medieval villages, and local gastronomy.

Begin with visits to family-run wineries, stroll through vineyards, and learn about the Rioja terroir, harvest rhythms, and winemaking from grape selection to barrel aging. Enjoy guided tastings to discover aromas of red fruit, vanilla, and spice.

Continue with a four-course Riojan lunch plus dessert (blood sausage, piquillo peppers and guindillas, beans and potatoes a la riojana, wood-fired lamb chops with salad, and Goxua) paired with local DOCa wines, while your guide shares stories of stone wine presses, underground cellars, and local traditions.

With hotel pick-up and drop-off, private air-conditioned transport, expert guidance, and a relaxed pace, this tour offers a fully immersive Rioja experience.
