For groups of 2 up to 6 people we offer a traditional home-made picnic lunch at our private cellar, a Riojan calado, which is a natural cave excavated out of bedrock underneath a 12th-century castle.

A calado is an ancient wine cellar where wine was made and stored. Nowadays (if you are lucky to have one;) this is where Riojan families party and celebrate their events, so it’s used as an entertainment room. Temperature is always constant between 11º-13º throughout the year.

For larger parties and out of season tours, we go to a restaurant that is a good representation of the local cuisine.

Yes, we can cater for special needs. Please advise of any special dietary requirements.
