At the Gil family’s organic farm in Rioja’s Ocón Valley, Delia guides you through free-range Duroc pigs, olive groves, horses, and the ham-making process. Finish with artisan ham, sausages, fresh bread, and one red and one white Rioja DOCa wine.

“This is such a fun experience! My 4 teens absolutely loved it. We had a personal tour of the farm and saw all the animals including their personal rising horses which we got to pet. We also got to pet the pigs and walk through the olive groves. It was a beautiful piece of land. At the end we had a nice tasting meal outside with fresh ham bread and wine. The sisters were so friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend it.”

5.La Rioja: Jamon Iberico Farm Tour and Tasting with Wine

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 3 reviews · from $146

Visit El Encinar organic farm in La Rioja’s Ocón Valley, see Duroc piglets and free roaming Spanish horses, tour the meat facilities, and taste organic Iberian ham, acorn fed ham, chorizo, and Rioja red and white wine with an English speaking host.

“Walking around the farm was good with plenty of info and seeing the pigs and horses. Chorizo tasting gave us lots of food but no actual wine tasting just a bottle of wine to drink. Tour was only 2 hours not 3 so overall expensive and not good value for money.”
