Additional
Information

Bodegas Olarra is located on the
outskirts of Logroño, right in the
heart of the Denominación de Origen
Calificada Rioja and within the
prestigious Rioja Alta sub-district.
Since it was founded in 1973, Olarra
has been characterized by the beauty
and complexity of its facilities,
known as the Cathedral of Rioja,
with its unique 'Y' shaped ground
plan, as well as its 111 hexagonal
"egg box" domes.
This bodega has been able to combine
the most modern winemaking
techniques with the traditional
vinification and ageing processes of
Rioja, creating wines which have
been conceived according to strict
quality standards.
In Olarra we believe that it is by
taking perfect care of the grapes
that a fine wine is made, so we
supervise every detail to the
maximum. In making its wines,
Bodegas Olarra only uses those
berries which meet a set of strict
conditions. Currently, Olarra offers
several labels to the market and
behind each of these is a wine with
its own identity. Its star wines are
the red oak-aged wines.
All in all, a wide range of wines
whose quality has been acknowledged
in the world's most important
contests.
