The Rioja wine region, nestled on a plateau in the northeastern corner of Spain, is a land of rich history, diverse terroirs, and unparalleled viticultural traditions. Spanning an altitude range of 300 to 800 meters, Rioja's landscape stretches approximately 60 miles along the northeastern banks of the Ebro River, from the enchanting city of Haro, in the northwest, to the picturesque town of Alfaro, in the southeast. This geographical diversity, coupled with its unique climatic conditions and political boundaries, contributes to the region's remarkable array of wines, each bearing the unmistakable stamp of Rioja's terroir.
