The Sunday Times Wine Club tour to Rioja
18 - 21 October 2007, 23 - 27 September 2009
No Club tour would be complete without our incredibly popular visit to La Rioja. This special long weekend gives you the opportunity to sample the true Spanish hospitality for which the great wine region is famous.
Our base for this trip is a tranquil converted monastery in the traditional wine town of Haro. From here we enjoy superb wine visits with extensive tastings and leisurely lunches at three wine estates.
You shall taste the wines of Baron de Ley and Izadi, and include Club favourite Martinez Bujanda, who are our long standing wine partners. You shall also discover tasty local dishes including tapas and milk- fed lamb.
