Discover the Ribera del Duero wine region
The origins of viticulture in La Rioja date back to Roman times when the first grape varieties and cultivation techniques were introduced to the region. However, it was during the Middle Ages that Rioja wine began to gain renown, thanks to the work of monks who tended the vineyards of monasteries and abbeys.
For centuries, the region flourished as a viticultural center, but it was in the 19th century that La Rioja experienced a true oenological revolution. The phylloxera plague that ravaged the vineyards of France led many French winemakers to seek refuge in La Rioja, bringing with them new winemaking techniques and grape varieties such as Tempranillo, which would become the emblem of the region.
Over time, La Rioja emerged as one of Spain’s premier wine regions, gaining international recognition for the quality and variety of its wines. In 1925, the Denominación de Origen Calificada (DOCa) Rioja was established, the first in Spain and one of the most prestigious in the world, guaranteeing the excellence and authenticity of wines produced in the region.
Today, La Rioja is a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts, who flock to explore its picturesque vineyards, visit its historic wineries, and taste its exquisite wines. Each bottle of Rioja wine is more than a beverage; it is the result of centuries of tradition, innovation, and passion, encapsulating the rich vinicultural history of this extraordinary region.
