Discover Spain’s most famous wine region through tastings and tours…
Relax & drink up in Rioja
Named after the River Oja, Rioja is the oldest regulated wine region in Spain and is famous for its beautiful red wines. The valley is protected by the Sierra de Cantabria and Demanda mountains, which produces the perfect microclimate for grape growing. Home to a wealth of history and culture, the stunning landscape is dotted with both high-tech, architectural wineries and traditional, family-run ones. Experience the drama of Spain’s most famous wine region with a glass in hand.
