In this setting, you will discover two iconic treasures: Marqués de Riscal and Bodegas Ysios, symbols of La Rioja and of Spanish wine.

Marqués de Riscal

In Elciego stands an icon that unites history and modernity. The Hotel Marqués de Riscal, designed by Frank Gehry, captivates with its metallic curves in shades of gold, silver, and pink, reflecting the light over the vineyards. A centuries-old winery where tradition and innovation come together. Here, you will taste legendary wines and enjoy a sensory experience where architecture engages with the land.

Ysios

In Laguardia stands a masterpiece by Santiago Calatrava: Bodegas Ysios, whose undulating structure evokes both the Rioja mountains and the ripples of wine in a glass. It is a temple to wine and architecture, where innovation coexists with the heritage of La Rioja. Its wines, its light, and its design will make you feel like you are part of a living work of art.

Laguardia

The tour concludes in Laguardia, one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Spain. Its city walls, cobbled streets, underground wineries, and stately homes make this place a veritable time capsule. Strolling through Laguardia means experiencing the essence of La Rioja in its purest form: wine, history, and magic.
