Viña Ijalba

Viña Ijalba is a winery in Logroño that cultivates vineyards across multiple regions of Rioja, growing both classic and indigenous grape varieties. The facility features underground cellar spaces lined with oak barrels for aging and developing the wines.

Founded in 1975, the winery gained regional recognition in 1995 by producing the first single-varietal wine from a local grape called Graciano. This achievement shifted how the region viewed this traditional grape variety in modern winemaking.

The name comes from founder Dionisio Ruiz Ijalba and has shaped local winemaking traditions since its establishment. Visitors experience how traditional production methods blend with organic farming practices that respect the land.

Visitors should know that the grounds are managed organically and feature both open vineyard areas and underground spaces. Wearing comfortable shoes is advisable since you may encounter uneven terrain, especially when exploring the vineyard sections.

The vineyards grow on restored former mining sites where extraction once took place and left behind mineral-rich soils. These conditions force the vines to develop deep root systems to access nutrients and create distinctive wine characteristics.
