Valdelana Meeting
We started working in the winery and alternating different spaces for coffee networking. Afterwards, there will be an encounter with nature in the Garden of Varieties, an exclusive space between the Ebro and the vineyard, where the master chef will offer guests a Riojan lunch made with vine shoots, a taste of the vineyard. There will be time for pairings with Valdelana.
Wine bar Sobre la bodega
Bodegas Valdelana, recognized as the most awarded winery in Spain with four Best Of Wine Tourism awards, is built upon six underground cellars made of ashlar stone dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. Here, you’ll discover our Ethnographic Museum, which houses artifacts from all the cultures and civilizations that have inhabited Rioja Alavesa throughout history.
In the first one, we can find our Ethnographic Museum, a sample of the development of viticulture in Elciego. The exhibition includes a wide range of objects, from utensils from 6,500 years ago, to implements related to viticulture used in the 19th century.
Note our Chapel, chaired by the Virgin of the Plaza, located in an original altarpiece of the sixteenth century, where we can also see the oldest document that works in the winery and dating from 1583.
Our oldest cellar dates back to 1400. We wanted to leave it unrestored so that our visitors can admire a small sample of how our ancestors worked.
Our special tasting room is located in an underground cellar. From the tasting table you can enjoy a wonderful view of an infinite vineyard also located 10 meters underground.
Finally, we enter the "tunnel of the senses" composed of 5 old tanks and 4 restored fermentation lakes where the visitor can appreciate the colors of the wine, experiment with the aromas, know the ideal temperatures...
