Bodega La Riojana
La Riojana Cooperativa Vitivinícola
One of Argentina's largest wine cooperatives, known for its Torrontés white wine and Fair Trade wines.
Founded in 1940, this wine cooperative brings together hundreds of growers from the Famatina Valley. It was one of the first large wineries in Argentina to earn Fair Trade certification, and its signature is fresh La Rioja Torrontés white wine. On the west side of town, guided tours take you through the fermentation tanks and cellars, followed by tastings, and the winery shop has affordable prices. Visits are mainly on weekdays, so it is best to confirm tour times in advance.
