Rioja Day Tour: Explore Three Wineries with Tastings

A Full-Day Wine Tour Through the Heart of Rioja

Explore one of Spain’s most celebrated wine regions on this immersive Rioja day tour, where tradition meets innovation. Over the course of the day, you’ll visit three contrasting wineries, ranging from historic, family-run bodegas with underground caves to cutting-edge estates known for bold, modern wines.

You’ll enjoy guided tastings at each winery, featuring a variety of styles from elegant Rioja Reservas to fresh, terroir-driven single-vineyard expressions made from Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano, and Viura. Along the way, learn about ageing classifications, Rioja’s sub-zones (Alta, Alavesa, Oriental), and the evolution of winemaking in the region.

Midday, we pause for a local lunch, either at a winery or at a regional restaurant that pairs beautifully with the wines you’ve just tasted (self-pay).

This experience is ideal for wine lovers seeking depth, storytelling, and a sense of place, led by a certified Spanish Wine Scholar or sommelier.
