La visita fue muy interesante, con una guía magnífica, que nos trasladó los conocimientos de una forma muy profesional, amena e interesante. Los vinos que probamos también fueron estupendos (The visit was very interesting, with a magnificent guide, who conveyed the knowledge to us in a very professional, pleasant and interesting way.

La visita está bien, pero con algunas cosas que mejorar. No se explica como catar un vino y estaría bien una copa para cada vino para que no se mezclen los sabores.

Unforgettable experience

An excellent winery, run by five generations, that has managed to preserve and revive the traditional methods of its ancestors. The wine was exceptional, and the guide was wonderful.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable tour with Lydia. The caves and the explanation of the traditional wine-making methods were very interesting. Thank you!

A spectacular experience! From the very first moment, the attention was excellent. We took a bike tour through the entire vineyard, allowing us to enjoy the scenery and experience the winemaking process up close. Our guide, Isabel, was incredible; she explained everything with great detail and passion, making every moment interesting and enjoyable. The visit to the winery was very authentic, with a fascinating history and, of course, spectacular wines. Highly recommended for wine lovers and those looking for a slightly different experience in La Rioja.
