A unique tour of the Solar de Samaniego cellars, located in the Rioja Alavesa region, which has been recognized as the “Best Wine Tourism Experience” by the Wine Routes of Spain —including a tasting of three wines from the estate.

The tour offers a chance to discover the winemaking process, learn about the history of Solar de Samaniego, and explore the “Beber Entre Líneas” project, which has transformed every corner of the winery.

• The tour takes you through the wine-and-literature spaces designed by interior architect Lázaro Rosa Violán, the tasting and reading room, the library nestled among the bottle racks, and the monumental artwork created by Australian muralist Guido van Helten in the former tanks of the Espacio Medio Millón.
• The experience allows visitors to discover our renovated outdoor spaces adjacent to the vineyard—developed following an international competition organized with the UNESCO Chair in “Cultural Landscapes and Heritage”—and to explore the winery’s unique spaces, which have been restored for visitors.

The tour concludes with a glass of wine amidst the monumental artwork of the “Espacio Medio Millón,” a space transformed into a “Cathedral of Wine” by the renowned Australian muralist Guido van Helten.
