Wine tours in Álava


Rioja or Txacolí? Why choose when you can have it all?

  • In Álava we can find 69 wineries to visit.
  • 16 towns here have wineries.
Alava is located in the Basque Country and, in it, you can find nothing more and nothing less than 65 wineries to visit and two appellations of origin to taste, which are: Txacolí de Álava, also called Arabako Txacolina, and the D.O. Rioja.

On the Rioja Alavesa wine route, you will learn that wine here is something that comes from ancient times, as indicated by the famous huts discovered in the vineyards of the Rioja Alavesa, typical of the Middle Ages, or the cave wine presses. Moreover, in the 15th century, the tithe could be paid with grapes, so that wine has always been part of the life of the region.

It is often said that the best time for wine tourism in Alava is in autumn, but whatever season of the year you come, you will find a beautiful historical heritage of medieval villages and emblazoned houses, which coexist in perfect aesthetic harmony with spectacular avant-garde wineries such as Marqués de Riscal.

Of the 16 towns that you will find in this province with wineries to visit, the most important wine town is the famous town of La Guardia. This is an inexcusable wine tourism destination to visit.

Lovers of wine culture will be able to visit the Villa Lucia Wine Thematic Center, a very important wine museum for the Basque Country and the rest of Spain.

As for the festivities related to the world of wine, in Alava they usually celebrate the Feast of Thanksgiving, yes, as in the USA, celebrated after the grape harvest, in which they also organize a mass to give thanks, with a procession in the streets and a popular lunch. It is a very important holiday, and as such it is celebrated in several localities.

Finally, we remind you that two wine routes pass through here: Rioja Alavesa and Txakolí.
