Visita una bodega del S XIX y su calado

We booked a winetour at José winetastelovers. José came to pick us up and we visited some bodegas, mostly greater ones. Meanwhile José explained to us all kind of things about wine in Rioja. When we arrived to La Bodega del Tresoro, things changed completely. We were given a warm and personal welcome in ths small bodega. We did a tour within the bodega, where José explained why it was important that the old bodega had to be preserved. Then we had a delicious lunch with traditional dishes, in a great old wooden barrel. The welcome was really overwhelming. It was a memorable experience that I can recommend to anybody.

We had a full day with José. We were picked us up from our accommodation in Logroño: we went to two different wineries via beautiful scenic routes, criss-crossing the Rioja wine region. En route José explained the various wine types, the producers (large & small) the sub-sections of the Rioja wine region - including stopping off at a couple of vinyards to taste the grapes - truly fascinating. We then arrived at the bodega he has lovingly restored. The pictures don't do it justice - it's really impressive - and you could see his immense pride at bringing back to life a piece of history. We were then treated to some exquisite food and very generous amounts of wine - within a wine barrel! - before being dropped off back at our accommodation. A simply wonderful experience, I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The tour was wonderful and we would highly recommend. Our guide was so knowledgeable. What he and his wife have done to preserve the history of the Rioja should be commended!! Thank you for a great tour!!

Unexpected. You show up to a small town to a series of small, unassuming buildings and you expected the experience to be a disappointment. Then you walk in. It is incredibly well maintained, tastefully decorated, and the owner is incredibly welcoming. You descend a few flights of stairs and the next thing you know you are in the Barrel room — both the winery and the barrel room date from the 18th century. You enjoy the chill and the information. Pop goes a barrel and you taste a sample of a small production. Limited quantities. It whets your appetite for more. Next stop is the Vinoteca with samples of other small productions and nibbles of homemade appies. The proprietor is a wealth of knowledge, is extremely welcoming, and graciously welcomes you into the experience that is La Bodega.

Not a traditional vineyard but a rescued 800 year old wine cellar. Jose gives a history of the region and really does a great job explaining how large and small wine makers produce great wines. We had the dinner experience and Jose and his wife could not have been friendlier. Food was great and we tried a number of different wines. An experience like no other. How many times can you have dinner in a wine barrel? After dinner we joined them and their friends in the bar area and the night continued. Highly recommended!
