They set up in the Barrio de la Estación to send wine by rail to Bilbao and France, and within a few hundred metres of Avenida de Vizcaya Muga, La Rioja Alta, López de Heredia and CVNE are still at work. This Sunday starts there, with a visit and tasting, goes on with suckling lamb at a grill house that opened in 1877 and ends in the old town and in Briñas, beside the Ebro. ## The day, hour by hour 9:30 · Set off. From Logroño or Vitoria, about forty minutes on the AP-68 or the N-124. From Burgos, an hour on the AP-1. Park near the station. 10:15 · The Barrio de la Estación. An hour's walk, outside: the stone and brick buildings of the century-old wineries, the track and the warehouses. López de Heredia only receives professionals for visits, but its shop is open to the public Monday to Saturday. 11:30 · Visit to Bodegas Muga. A family winery that keeps its production in wood: the big oak vats where the wine ferments, the ageing rooms and its own cooperage, where the barrels are made. It lasts about 90 minutes with a tasting of two wines and costs €30. Book on their website, choosing the day and time; no under-12s or pets, and no entry once it has started. Next to the winery, the Muga terrace serves its wines by the glass from 12:00 to 14:30, weather permitting. 14:00 · Lunch at Asador Terete. On calle Lucrecia Arana, in the centre, since 1877: suckling lamb roasted in a wood-fired oven, vegetable menestra, giblets and home-made desserts. On Saturdays and Sundays it serves lunch from 13:15 to 16:00. Book by phone, the only way. 16:15 · The old town and La Herradura. Go up to Plaza de la Paz and the church of Santo Tomás. The surrounding streets, La Herradura, are the ones with the wine bars and pinchos; on Sunday afternoon they liven up. 17:30 · Briñas. 3 km away, a village of houses with coats of arms on the bank of the Ebro, with its stone bridge. An hour is enough. 18:15 · Head home. In Logroño or Vitoria around seven. ## If it is a Saturday, at dawn or without wine On Saturdays and public holidays, La Rioja Alta runs three sessions of its visit with a guided tasting of Viña Ardanza and a gran reserva, for €35; the non-holiday Sunday does not appear on its website. Muga also offers dawn balloon flights over the Rioja Alta vineyard, with a Rioja breakfast, from €205, which are confirmed or changed 72 hours beforehand depending on the wind. Without wine, the Conchas de Haro, the gorge through which the Ebro enters La Rioja, can be walked to the Bilibio crags and the hermitage of San Felices, where every 29 June the Battle of Wine is held. ## With children The Muga visit is for over-12s. With younger children, swap the winery for the Conchas de Haro or a stroll round Briñas and the river, and leave the tasting for another day. ## Cómo llegar ### By car By the AP-68 or the N-124, about forty minutes from Logroño and Vitoria.
