La Rioja

Welcome to Calahorra, the vibrant heart of Rioja Baja and a city that will immediately captivate you with its deeply rooted history and rich agricultural heritage. If you want to explore La Rioja beyond wine, a fascinating mix awaits you here: Roman ruins, impressive churches, and a vibrant culture revolving around the excellent produce of its fertile Vega — it's no coincidence that Calahorra is known as the "Vegetable Capital."

Haro, the wine capital of Rioja Alta, is deeply connected to Spanish wine culture, offering an authentic experience. Here you'll find the historic Barrio de la Estación, a unique cluster of old wineries that have been producing wine since the 19th century. In the city center, the Plaza de la Paz, with its Town Hall and the Basilica de Nuestra Señora de la Vega, shapes the scene. The Church of Santo Tomás impresses with its late Gothic portal and Renaissance tower. A yearly highlight is the Batalla del Vino on June 29th, a traditional wine festival. If you plan your visit in spring or autumn, you'll experience the region with pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds. For a comprehensive wine tasting, you should book tours in advance at the wineries of Barrio de la Estación.

Logroño, capital of the La Rioja region and located on the Way of St. James, is a hub for Spanish wine culture and gastronomy.
