You will taste 4 wines paired with 3 local appetisers. And of course you will be able to take as many pictures as you want of the Ysios building!

We will start our Architectural Rioja Tour from Bilbao with a guided visit of the Marques de Riscal winery designed by one of todays leading architects, Franck Gehry. (Also famed for the Guggeheim museum in Bilbao). Expect to taste three different wines.

We will visit the Ysios cellar designed by Santiago Calatrava. The structure boasts many architectural features, for example, the roof aims to simulate te Sierra Cantabria (the mountain range that importantly helps to create the Rioja micro climate). In case Ysios is not open to the public that we will take you to Javier San Pedro winery (in front of Ysios winery)

You will have a tutored tasting where you will taste two of their remarkable wines with an aperitif (normally Iberian ham).
