We will take a tour of the winemaking and ageing facilities of the urban winery, taking a closer look at the particularities of artisan work, ageing in clay amphorae, foudres or barrels. We will also see how we carry out the manual work of labelling and sealing bottles, which is typical of small production wines. We will finish with a tasting of four wines accompanied by an aperitif of Riojan pork loin and our own organic olive oil with bread from a wood-fired oven. An emotional visit to enjoy the culture of wine, with the charm of the small and artisanal.
An experience to discover the full potential of the vineyards and the most special wines of the Arizcuren project, at the same time a great opportunity to visit a winery in the city centre, recovering the historical tradition of the centre of Logroño as a place of winemaking, lost for centuries and dating back to the Middle Ages.
It begins with a detailed explanation of the family vineyards of La Rioja Oriental, of the native grape varieties that have traditionally been cultivated in our area in small plots worked with the traditional know-how handed down by our ancestors.
We will continue with a tour of the winemaking and ageing rooms of the urban winery, where we will learn how our wines are made and aged in barrels, amphorae and concrete tanks in such a unique space.
We will taste 4 wines that form part of the Arizcuren project: our Monte Gatun municipal wine, two minority varietals and, to top it all off, an exclusive plot wine. All these wines together are present on the menus of more than 30 Michelin star restaurants.
