Friday 31st – 1st August, Cassalarreina, La Rioja, Spain


We continued on further east to the La Rioja region which is famous for its great red wines and mountainous country side. We stayed in a small town called Cassalarreina at a converted beautiful monestary and used our two days to do a little wine tasting and visit the surrounding areas such as Haro & Logrono. We also enjoyed some lovely Basque meals... northern Spain is well known as foodie heaven and the highlight was a plate of Pigeon with Foi Gras!
