Heras Cordon Winery Tour

Taste the best of Rioja Alavesa with this guided tour of the Heras Cordón winery, which includes a wine tasting and a menu featuring regional dishes.

Heras Cordon Winery Tour

We will meet at the entrance to the Heras Cordón Winery for a guided tour of the vineyard facilities, dating back to the 19th century. The winery evolved through challenges such as the Civil War, culminating in significant commercial and industrial expansion by the late 20th century, including major reforms in the 1990s.

The expert winemaker will guide us through the modern facilities, explaining the winemaking process, varietal characteristics, and tasting techniques. The tour also showcases the winery's history with old barrels, stone corridors, and a large door from a cloistered monastery in Segovia.

At the end of the tour, we will participate in a wine tasting with selections from the region, including accompaniments like homemade sausages and cheeses.
