If you are looking for a region where tradition meets terroir, Rioja Alta is a captivating destination. Nestled in northern Spain, its diverse geography—from rolling hills to clay-rich soils—combined with a continental climate fosters exceptional Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Graciano grapes. Historical milestones, such as the introduction of barrel aging in the late 19th century, have shaped its wines' distinctive character. This sub-region of the broader Rioja DOCa boasts iconic villages like Haro and Laguardia, renowned for their timeless winemaking excellence.
