In this tour you will get to know the 3 sub regions of Rioja: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental so you can understand how the different styles of soils, geographical influences and altitudes offer completely different wine profiles.  From the famous Tempranillo grapes to the Viura, Granache, Graciano or Mazuelo you will experience the brand range of Rioja´s wines.
