Cata del Barrio de la Estación: Trip Planning Guide
Haro, Spain
Going to Cata del Barrio de la Estación?
The world's greatest concentration of centenary wineries, clustered around Haro's historic railway station, opens for a single weekend. López de Heredia, Muga, CVNE, Roda, Bodegas Bilbaínas, and La Rioja Alta pour their finest wines in their own cellars. An extraordinary, intimate tasting experience at iconic bodegas.
Your trip blueprint
Book López de Heredia and La Rioja Alta cellars weeks in advance—these are the most coveted slots and fill instantly. Time your visits to catch the afternoon light in the underground galleries (galerías) where century-old vintages rest, and ask specifically for barrel samples rather than finished wines, as this is where Rioja's true character reveals itself.
