Family winery in Olite since 1843, with organic vineyards, showing its cellar and vineyard with a tasting of its wines, oil, cheese and chocolate.

Bodegas Ochoa is a family winery in Olite: the foundation stone dates from 1843, and today it is run by Adriana and Beatriz Ochoa, the sixth generation. They have about 130 hectares of vineyard, farmed organically since 2015, with estates at Traibuenas beside the Cañada Real along which flocks come down to the Bardenas.

## The family

In 1930 Adriano Ochoa planted 80 hectares of vines on the Plana de Olite and bottled the first aged reds. He died in 1965 and his son Javier took over at 19; in 1979 his wife Mariví Alemán joined, who opened the winery to export. In 1992 they began planting at Traibuenas. Adriana now runs the technical side and Beatriz the management. In 2025 they renewed their labels and image with the motto "Ahora. Aquí. Siempre" ("Now. Here. Always"), which gives its name to their three wine lines and to their visits. They say they devote 10% of their budget to research and innovation.

## The estates

Each estate has its own grape: Grenache at La Cañada de Traibuenas, Graciano at La Pedrera, small-berried Muscat at Altos de Traibuenas, Tempranillo at Santa Cruz de Traibuenas and Secadero, Viognier, Chardonnay and Viura at La Milla, Merlot at Montijo and white Grenache at Santa Brígida, these two in Olite, and Grenache at La Inesperada, in San Martín de Unx.

## The visits

All last 90 minutes and tour the winery with a final tasting, told in a friendly way. "Ahora", at €25, covers the winery and vineyard and tastes four wines with bread, their oil, zero-mile cheese and Ochoa chocolate; it is the most accessible. "Aquí", at €32, focuses on caring for the land and tastes five wines from that series. "Siempre", at €40, goes into the wine library and the barrel room, goes over their history and tastes four top-range wines, with cured meats as well. The last two are accessible in the winery, not entirely in the vineyard. The Olite tourist office lists visits from Wednesday to Saturday at 11:00, Thursday and Sunday to be confirmed, with prices for non-drinkers (€12) and children aged 4 to 17 (€6).
