La Rioja wine tour: winery and traditional lunch from Bilbao
Overview
If you’re looking for a comfortable, authentic, and enriching wine tour with local character, this getaway from Bilbao takes you to the heart of La Rioja wine country at an unhurried pace.
After a scenic drive, you’ll reach La Rioja, where walled villages and vine-covered hills reveal the terroir.
We’ll visit a mid-sized winery to learn how grapes are transformed into great wines, from vineyard to barrel. The experience includes a guided wine tasting featuring D.O.Ca. Rioja selections, helping identify aromatic profiles, styles, and ideal pairings. It continues with a four-course Riojan lunch: blood sausage, piquillo peppers and guindillas, Riojan beans, potatoes with chorizo, wood-fired lamb chops with salad, and Goxua for dessert, served in a traditional restaurant with seasonal dishes and paired wines.
Afterwards, enjoy the serene pace and panoramic views of Laguardia.
Comfortable transport and an expert guide make this tour a full immersion in Rioja’s wine culture.
