Ruta del Vino Rioja Alta
The Vivanco Foundation’s Museum of Wine Culture was inaugurated in mid-2004 and is one of the most important private initiatives on the world of wine and its economic, social and cultural dimensions. In this complex, consisting of the museum itself and the winery, we find the history and culture of wine, a product associated with mythology and religion, with a strong social presence and whose production requires, from the vineyard to the winery, work that captures the essence of traditional tasks. Visits to the museum must be booked in advance for both national and international calls on 941 322 323. The opening hours are the same as for the visits, which you can see by clicking on the Timetable link.
