Full-day visit to the wineries of La Rioja from Madrid Description

This 13-hour tour to the wineries of La Rioja is perfect for those visitors who want to get to know and enjoy the best wines of northern Spain from the capital. We will start early in the morning to make the most of our full-day visit to the wineries of La Rioja from Madrid, with a luxury private vehicle with chauffeur for a comfortable and safe journey.

La Rioja is a beautiful and historic wine region that includes the province of the same name, as well as part of the Basque Country, Navarre and Castile & León. This region has been linked to wine production since before the arrival of the Romans. The privileged conditions and soils and the millenary experience of its wineries give rise to the high quality of the Rioja Denomination of Qualified Origin (DOCa) wines, a favorite among oenology enthusiasts, composed of fresh, aromatic wines, with a balanced composition and excellent bouquet.

The traditional authorized grapes used to make Rioja wines are both red (Tempranillo, Garnacha tinta, Cariñena and Graciano) and white (Viura, Malvasía and white Garnacha), but in recent years others such as Maturana, Monastel, Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc and Verdejo have also been accepted. These grapes are used to make reds, whites and rosés, which are divided into Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva, depending on their level of maturity.

The success of DOCa Rioja wines means that the availability of the wineries is scarce, and it is difficult to visit two wineries in one day, but we take care of everything so that you only have to enjoy the experience.

Your chauffeur will pick you up at the place of your choice in Madrid in a luxury vehicle, and you will start your route to the north. Once in La Rioja you will be able to visit two wineries, where you will learn about the history and technique of each one of them, and where you will be able to taste their most representative wines, accompanied by the traditional appetizers that the winemakers know best match their wines.
